Title: Maybe a good first book
Review: Micke Spick's book was a disapointment. It is not very well researched and I found a lot of stories in it, which other books described better and more in depth. Some facts about the pilots are myths and have been shown to be wrong. The comments about the radar in the book are so brief that it gives you the wrong impression about the different approaches the germans and british had to this new technology. The tactics of the german pilots are only described briefly. Yes, we already know that the germans invented the "rotte" and the book goes tell you about "schräge musik", that the germans tried to shoot at very close range and so on and so on. There are no new facts in this book. For anyone who already read a few book about the airwar in europe, this book can't be recommended. It gets two stars because it is a fair introductory book at at low price.
