BROKEN EAGLES Vol 1 LUFTWAFFE LOSSES OVER YORKSHIRE 1939-1945

This book is the first of a two-volume work recording all of the known losses of Luftwaffe aircraft over the north-east of England, from the Humber to the Tweed, during World War II. This volume covers Yorkshire and its coastline, from the Humber to the Tees: it gives detailed descriptions of the nature and circumstances of the loss of each of the seventy aircraft and their crews, and tells the stories that lie behind the bald statistics. While he was researching material for this book, the author contacted in excess of fifty ex-Luftwaffe personnel who had operated over the north of England during the war. The text is supported by some ninety photographs, many of which were made available to the author by ex-Luftwaffe personnel.
