From Barbarossa to Odessa: The Luftwaffe and Axis Allies Strike South-East: June-October 1941 Vol 2

From Barbarossa to Odessa: The Air Battle over South-West Ukraine August-October 1941 is the second of two volumes on the air combat which took place on the southern flank of the Eastern Front following Operation Barbarossa. This book covers the often overlooked involvement of aircraft from Axis states other than Germany, such as the Romanians, who claimed a total of over 600 air victories, the Hungarians, the Slovaks, and even the Bulgarians. This makes the subject varied and of great interest, particularly because of the large variety of aircraft types employed by both sides, all of which are fully documented. Aided by a large number of previously unpublished photographs, the book tells the story of the campaign from both sides and provides detailed eyewitness accounts from individual pilots who were involved in the fighting. Besides day-to-day operations, appendices will contain comprehensive victory and loss lists.
