This Luftwaffe photo book is rather unique in that it covers just those planes that took part in the air war over Czechoslovakia. While the title says "Luftwaffe in Detail", there are also some US and Soviet examples included inside.
There's a lot of photos unseen before. The vast majority of these photos show planes that crash-landed or were abandoned at the end of the war, so there are many cases where the whole plane is just not there. All the photos are of decent quality, though, with many being very good and most have not been seen before. The captions are very well written and try to tell as much of a story surrounding the photo as possible.
Overall this book provides an interesting look at some of the typical Luftwaffe planes, and the large number of new photos makes this book a worthwhile investment.
