KUHL, GEORGE C. WRONG PLACE, WRONG TIME: THE 305TH BOMB OVER 700 BLACK & WHI 6" X 9", 248 PGS. | |
|
This is true story of the second raid on Schweinfurt, Germany by the Eighth Air Force 1st and 3rd Bombardment Divisions on 14 October 1943. On this day, the Eighth Air Force lost air superiority to the German Luftwaffe in a continuous air battle that lasted over three hours. Many refer to it as the greatest one-day air battle of World War II. Wrong Place, Wrong Time is a study of the 1st Bombardment Division and specifically the 305th Bomb Group on that fateful day. Record numbers of German fighters swarmed over the unescorted B-17s and their crews. Compelling new evidence never before published indicates that mistakes and poor leadership by several air commanders within the 1st Division caused unnecessary losses for a number of bombers and their crews. This, together with major new revelations by crew members of the 305th who flew the mission, shed light on why the 1st Division lost 45 out of 60 B-17s that day. Information for this book comes from the National Archives, the US Air Force Historical Research Center, overseas sources, and 53 surviving 305th crew members who flew this mission.George C. Kuhl was a pilot in the 305th Bomb Group during World War II. He lives in Augusta, Georgia. Price: $24.95 |

KUROWSKI, FRANZ DEADLOCK BEFORE MOSCOW OVER 140 BLACK & WHI 6" X 9", 412 PGS. | |
|
. . . One of these events, the attempt of the Red Army to cut off and destroy the panzer formations far advanced before Moscow, is little known.In January 1942, when the 3rd, 4th and 22nd Soviet Shock armies set out from the Army Group North area to the south and attacked Kholm, Toropets, Demidov, Vitebsk and Belikie Luki, in order to roll over the rear area services approximately 160 kilometers behind the front and the strong point-like positions and cut off the main body of Army Group Center from its supply of weapons and soldiers, the Eastern Campaign appeared to be lost.The renewed major offensive of the Red Army, which began in November 1942, found these troops - hopelessly opposing massed enemy formations - in a battle to the bitter end. This is especially shown in Velikie Luki, where the defensive strength of 7,500 German soldiers fought to the end paid for with their own lives. Only a handful of soldiers escaped from this inferno.Never before has such detail on this aspect of the Russian front campaign been available in English. Reknowned author Franz Kurowski uses first-person accounts, and never before published documentation to present this, the turning point of the war in Russia. Price: $34.95 |

KUROWSKI, FRANZ HITLERS LAST BASTION: THE FINAL B OVER 110 BLACK & WHI 6" X 9", 432 PGS. | |
|
The final stage of the Second World War, with the enemy across the Reichs borders, saw final desperate battles for numerous fortified places and blocking positions. Hitler ordered the defense of these fortified places such as Knigsberg and Breslau, Wesel and Kolberg, Danzig, Posen and many others. In these isolated bastions the war-weary German units offered desperate resistance, offered for good purpose. This stubborn holding-on to the last round saved hundreds of thousands of women and children, made possible the evacuation of hospitals and the transport out of surrounded Wehrmacht female auxiliaries. The fates of German soldiers were realized in bunkers and caves, in tunnels and fields of rubble. In the H rtgenwald as in the Reichswald, during the crossing of the Rhine between Wesel and Emmerich, in the Remagen bridgehead, on the hill at Keppeln, in the Ruhr pocket, as well as in the east of the Reich in the East Prussian pocket, in Pomerania, in Silesia and in the Reich capital. Shocking scenes of apocalyptic battle were played out wherever Hitlers last bastions held out against the onrushing enemy, whether at the frontiers of the Reich or inside Germany itself.

This extraordinary new book fills a long time void in the literature of tools and technology. In this one volume, author Gerard L'e Turner covers the basics and much more about the precision instruments of every principal profession. Arranged topically by the trade or profession in which the instruments were used, the author describes the need for the specific instruments, their historical development and variations, and includes spectacular photographs of instruments from the great museums and collections from Britain, Europe and the United States. Covered are astronomy, surveying, optical, medical, navigational and philosophical instruments. A chapter on calculators and measuring instruments is particularly well done. The instruments featured, particularly those in the color plates are alone worth the price of this great new book. Highly recommended. Price: $0.00 |
