Reviews for Eagles Over North Africa (Luftwaffe at War)
To be completely honest, I'd sort of forgotten that this review copy of Eagles was on it's way to me. So it's arrival was a rather pleasant surprise. In fact, it was an extremely pleasant surprise: This book, part of the Luftwaffe At War series, is an absolute gem.
