It was just published on the 19th of November. I may try to pick it up for the history of JG3 in BoB.

Ooo, definitely let me know what you think of it.

 

I may pick it up.

S!

 

I got it, just $9 for Kindle!

It's 14.5$ for Kindle, according to my amazon.com. Where did you find it for 9? Or it was due Black Friday?

It shows up 9.99 for kindle on my amazon page as well.

S!

 

$9.75 now. I think $14.5 is paperback version.

Oh, I think I got it. I has to be some kind of tax in Europe/Czech Rep then. My page shows 16.2$ for paperback and 14.51$ for Kindle.

 

That's not fair!!!

Kindle Price: $14.75 includes VAT* & free international wireless delivery via Amazon Whispernet

 

 

You could order it from amazon.co.uk, http://www.amazon.co.uk/Aces-Jagdgeschwader-Udet-Aircraft-ebook/dp/B00FZV7NXG

 

When ordering from amazon, I always check prices between amazon.co.uk, amazon.fr and amazon.de. Sometimes, there are huge price differences between countries.

I ordered parts from those 3 countries when I built this computer.

I'm finally getting around to ordering this book today.  While looking around, I did find this book on I./JG3, too bad they don't have one on JG1.  Although I do have the Defenders of the Reich Series by Mombeek, so it's probably just as effective.  I wonder if Defending the Reich: The History of Jagdgeschwader 1 "Oesau", also by Mombeek, is just a rewrite of those 3 smaller paperback books.  I find it hard to spend ~$70 to find out, though.

I *think* Defending the Reich: the History of Jagdgeschwader 1 "Oesau" is an out of print early version of Defenders of the Reich.

 

But it's so hard to tell.

 

The only other authoritative series on JG1 Oesau that I know of is the three part series "Jagdgeschwader 1 und 11", by Jochen Prien

It's in German.  But I've been meaning to pick it up for years now.

PS: the Prien books are HUGE by the way.  The library where I work has them and they are very massive.

I went ahead and picked up Jagdgeschwader 3 "Udet" in WWII: Vol. 1, also.  With all the Battle of Britain flying we've been doing in CloD, I've been more interested in I./JG3's early exploits.  Plus, when I was a kid my mother always encouraged me to buy books by saying, "You can never go wrong buying a book. It will be there for life."  I think it made her happy I wasn't only trying to pick up the newest G.I. Joe figure.

I received the two books today and my first impression is favorable.  They are high quality and have a lot of great photos of I./JG3 during France and the Battle of Britain.

Cool!  Adding it to my amazon cart.
