"This book has been very useful in understanding the war from the German perspective. I found the impressions, correct and incorrect, that the Germans had of Allied technologies, strategy, tactics and operations and vice versa very interesting. Also the political battles that Galland had in order to try and get his fighter arm recognised and equipped. It is a situation that many operational leaders find themselves in, in times of war, but more so when the German hierarchy was so unable to contradict the Fuhrer. How different things would have been if the ME262 had become operational in quantity a couple of years earlier!!
I had the paperback without the photos but many can be found on the Internet if one searches under Adolf Galland."
