The German Air Force 1933-1945

 

A study of the German Air force, its meteoric rise under the Hitler Government prior to WWII: its early war-time successes, then the steady decline to ignominy and defeat. Why the Luftwaffe lost command of the air over Britain in 1940, over the Atlantic in 1941, over the Mediterranean in 1942, and how by mid-1943 it was incapable of taking the initiative in the air anywhere over Europe. The disintegration of the Luftwaffe's High Command and the disastrous leadership of Goering.
