Robert Michulec Livres

Robert Michulec brings us the first volume of the photographic journal of the German 4th Panzer Division in combat, from 1941 to 1943. All photos are from a private collection and never before published.This volume follows the 4th Panzer Division from Operation Barbarossa until end of 1943. The division was mainly equipped with Pz.Kpfw. III and IV during this period, with supporting panzergrenadier battalions (mainly Sd.Kfz. 250 and 251 half-tracks), anti-tank battalions (mainly Marder II and III), and reconnaissance battalions (mainly Luchs). Photographs featured AFVs of these battalions, with many rare shots of Marder III and Luchs in action.

The biography of perhaps the most famous Luftwaffe ace, a fighter pilot who fought against the Spanish, the British and Americans, the Russians, and even within the Nazi hierarchy itself From the Condor Legion in Spain, to the first use of jet fighters over Germany at the end of World War Two, Adolf Galland was in the thick of the action as an outstanding fighter pilot and charismatic leader. Outspoken in his criticisms of the German leadership late in the war, he was demoted to hazardous front-line duties, but survived to build strong friendships with his former aerial opponents.

This exciting on-going series covers every aspect of the Luftwaffe in World War II and charts the rise and fall of this mighty force. Each volume makes use of over a hundred rare and valuable photographs, many of them taken by Luftwaffe personnel, to bring history to life and record both the men and the aircraft they flew.

72 pages, 179 photos, 16 color profiles. The Second volume of the "armor Battles on the Eastern Front". Robert Michulec's efforts have been rewarded with his search throughout Eastern European archives and private collections to bring the readers many unique not-before-published wartime photos to fill the book. This book begins with the battle of Voronezh in January 1943 and continues to the battle of Berlin in 1945. Mid 1943 saw the Germans at high tide. In addition, from then on, the downfall of the Third Reich was inevitable. Armor from both sides of the conflict are captured in photo, this time the Soviet armor advancing, while German armor demolished. Many unpublished photos of interesting vehicles like Elefant, Whirbelwind, Bergepanther, IS-2, Soviet Sherman are included in the book. With the interest of German and Soviet armor models among modelers, this book should be an excellent reference material for the modelers. Artists, A. Wrobel and W. Kloriski provide good camouflage and markings in the color profiles.

All books in the Concord series are Paperback and not hardcover. This book is a paperback.
