"The Sky Their Battlefield"

[fast.git]

Anyone familiar with Trevor Henshaw's The Sky Their Battlefield? An updated version is being advertised on Cross & Cockade, but it's a bit pricey... is it a worthwhile investment?

Thanks.

Hi Chris. Did you suscribe to Cross and Cockade? I did a couple of months back but haven't received anything from them at all.

I did subscribe for 2015. As I understand it (and according to the C&CI website), the winter edition wasn't to leave the printers until the end of November. I'm hoping that means they're on their way!

I will be interested to hear what transpires here chaps. Please keep me informed.

From info on the Aerodrome historical forum this is THE book to get if you want an overview of pilots & observers lost in WW1.
The new edition has a huge amount of new info gleaned since the first book.
Check out reviews on "The Aerodrome"

Its not cheap but its on my to get list right at the top.

Tried to find it on Cross and Cockade book list but it did not appear to be there either in current or second hand books.

Amazon is only showing the '95 edition for sale; the new one is not available, and no price listed.
The 'blurb' writer for Amazon should be told that the "Axis" didn't exist in WW1

I should say so!

Thanks for looking into availability, gents. I'm in no particular hurry and perfectly willing to wait for the updated & revised version... whenever that should become available.

Thanks Chris.
I knew if I bleated loud enough some kind soul would find it for me.
