Reviews

The authors have done an outstanding job. Both volumes are a fantastic addition to your aviation library. The reproduction quality is superb...these two are up there with the best. * War History Online * All in all there is just so much in here that I think anyone with an interest in the wartime Luftwaffe, historian and modeller, there will be lots to like in this one. * Military Model Scene * This is a superb little book...will particularly appeal to modellers as its photographs tell much more than could be gleaned from black and white imagery. * Britain at War Magazine * Together they make an excellent pair, with plenty of reference material, plus a good read to be had in-between. The quality of the pictures in some cases gives the impression that they could have been taken yesterday. * Britmodeller.com * The photographs in this book make it a very useful reference for both aircraft enthusiasts and modellers, but this usefulness is magnified by the fact that the photos are in colour. Highly recommended. * Scale Military Modelling International Magazine * These books are superb modelling references...If like us you're a sucker for colour WWII photographs these books are superb value. * Air Modeller * Interesting as it groups a large collection of colour pictures of the men and planes of the Luftwaffe. Some are not so well known, and this makes it surely worthy of inclusion to your collection, as a quick reference, a sample of Luftwaffe camouflage colours or a modellers source of inspiration. * Luftwaffe Research Group * Over 400 striking images, each placed in context with a descriptive caption, fill this fascinating compendium... Luftwaffe in Colour will appeal to military historians and lay readers alike, and is a choice pick for public and college library collections. Also highly recommended is the companion volume, Luftwaffe in Color: The Victory Years 1939-1942. * Midwest Book Review * A brilliant collection of colour photos of the Luftwaffe in the later years of WWII. Listed in Military History Monthly's round up of the best military history titles for October 2017. * Military History Monthly * Any photo book stands or falls on the quality of photo reproduction and fortunately here not only is the standard very high but the quality of 90% of the images is very good indeed while each picture is informatively and expertly captioned. Once again, a volume to keep close to hand for reference, to dip into constantly. * Flightpath Magazine * Especially high quality captions with each and every photograph that really add to the value of this book...provides some great diorama ideas. * Armorama * This book is not only a valuable historical took for WWII historians but also essential for modelers who want to make their scale paint schemes as accurate as possible. * Reale Model Review *
