Phoenix Triumphant - The Rise and Rise of the Luftwaffe
London: Arms & Armour, 1994. Octavo, black cloth hard cover, dust jacket, gilt lettering on spine, 320 pp., 24 black-and-white illustrated plates. A very fine copy. This book tells for the first time the full history of the Luftwaffe and how it came into being. Using primary source material from British, French and German archives, Hooton gives detailed and well researched insights into the successes (and failures) of both the German Military and Allied forces during the Second World War. And how a few far-sighted individuals such as Milch, Wever, and Blomberg shaped the legacy of the organisation in what is now considered a zenith period in aviation development. Item #3865
