Synopsis

This study provides an appraisal of Germany's air forces from the post-World War I era through the early stages of World War II, revealing why the Luftwaffe proved so formidable against its British and French rivals. The author demolishes several myths surrounding the Luftwaffe, including the belief that they had no ideas beyond the support of ground forces and that its leadership in the Second World War lacked deep professional grounding.
