• Wings of the Black Cross, Vol. 13

    Number Thirteen continues to showcase many of the different aircraft types that the Luftwaffe operated in World War II. In that effort, the author relies on the original photos he has gathered over 20 years of collecting from various sources. Of course, selected historians have also contributed photos from their private archives. Many of these images, sixty in total, are previously unpublished. Supporting the photos, captions broaden the historical narrative. Aircraft color and markings are discussed, occasionally supported with 8 color profiles from noted graphic illustrator, James Bentley.
    While day fighters form the backbone of the series from its inception, coverage is not limited to those types. Several aircraft types are also featured including:
    Bf 108
    Bf 109
    Bf 110
