BAGRATION TO BERLIN THE FINAL AIR BATTLES IN THE EAST

Description: BAGRATION TO BERLIN: THE FINAL AIR BATTLES IN THE EAST, 1944 - 45 Christer Bergstrom, oversize hardcover with dust jacket, new copy. Written by a leading expert in World War 2 air operations on the Eastern Front, this is the last in a quartet of books that together gives total coverage of air battles in this theatre of war from 1941 to 1945. It details the final phase of air operations in the East from late 1943, and then covers the German defensive operations around the River Dnepr and the Sea of Azov in September 1943, and the subsequent German retreat and the air bridge to Cherkassy in early 1944. Final coverage is given to the major Soviet offensive against the Army Group Centre in mid-1944, the fall of Romania and the autumn battles in Poland, Courland and on the Vistula, ending with the major Soviet winter offensive of early 1945 and the last ditch battles over Berlin itself. The strength of the author’s writing lies not only in the fantastic in-depth detail, but the ability to tell the story from the viewpoints of both sides and also from both strategic and tactical contexts. There is also unique eye-witness material and the text is accompanied by a large number of rare and many previously unpublished photographs, ‘biography boxes’, plus data tables, technical assessments and appendices. 400 b/w photos, 144 pages. All dust jackets for hardcover books are protected with clear plastic, fully removalbe covers. These will protect the dust jacket forever, keeping it in new condition for the life of the book. These are especially handy for the large oversize books whose jackets easily get torn as you might have noticed when browsing in bookstores. These are not a permanent part of the jacket, if you don't like it you can easily remove it without damaging the jacket. I cover all hardcover books with these covers and there are so popular that many customers buy them from me to put on books in their own collection. All books are entirely in English unless noted otherwise. Winner pays $8.00 shipping within the US. I combine purchases and the rate goes way down after the first book purchased. International orders billed at cost. I will ship anywhere in the world. If you have any questions about payment options please contact me.
