Has anyone seen this....

If it's anything like their other books it should be a real benefit to modelers.
Their Marseille book is excellent.

Bonjour Fearless Leader

Yes, I have the books on Bob and Ostermann and those are worthy volumes. The author of the to be published work about Manfred von Richthofen, James F. Miller, often lands here at The Aerodrome and is an authority on The Red Baron ... have a look at Over The Front, Volume 23, Number 3, Autumn 2008 which contains the article Miller wrote about the wounding of von Richthofen on July 6, 1917 ...

Salut!
Kirk

Not available?

Their website indicates that the book would be released Spring 2009 however I have been checking and so far, I cannot locate any copies doing an ISBN search.

Hello, everyone.

Just a quick thank you! for the interest and an FYI to say the book has left the printer in Hong Kong and is enroute England. Expected arrival there is 4-6 July and although I have not been notified of a specific date, I imagine availability will be shortly thereafter.

Spring ends 21 June, so Air Power is just a tad late!

Hi,

I can guarantee to one and all that this book will be EXCELLENT! Superbly written and illustrated, with a new viewpoint and insights on MvR's flying skills and career.

Another Unabashed plug for Jim's book.

Hello everyone:

I agree with Greg, I think Jim's book will be excellet! I have already responded to another thread about the help Jim has given me with my own Richthofen research. Based on the knowledge he shared with me, I can't wait to get his book.

Jim,

Do you know if RZM Imports will be distributing your book in the United States?
