Aircraft of the Third Reich, by Willam Green (series)

[aae83]

I haven't seen much in the "press" about this so I'll post it: William Green's Warplanes of the Third Reich has been enhanced and is being re-issued as a 3-volume series entitled Aircraft of the Third Reich. Volume 1 is out now; Volumes 2 and 3 are due to be released in the Spring and Autumn of 2011.

Here's a link to the publisher: http://aerospace-masterbooks.co.uk/series.asp

I have both the original book and the first volume of this series. If you're familiar with the Aircraft in Profile series of publications, the original followed that format: small print; black and white line drawings; some color profiles; some cutaway drawings. Very professionally done, in a no-nonsense way. For purists, there is some controversy over the accuracy of the information contained.

The new series retains the info and illustrations from the original, adds more color illustrations and aircraft types, and is printed on higher quality paper in a slightly larger font. Still no-nonsense, but a little friendlier, and with more information.

Thought some of the Luftwaffe junkies out there might like to know, if they didn't already.

Cheers!
