Deutsche Flugzeuge im Ersten Weltkrieg

More than 100 years after the outbreak of World War I, this magnificent volume provides a comprehensive account of the operational and technological history of the German Air Force and Naval Aviation from 1914 to 1918, written from a modern perspective. Within just a few years, the flying machines and their crews became a decisive military force. While only 218 aircraft were available at the beginning, over 47,000 machines had been built by the end of 1918, highlighting the significance of these new weapons. This book, richly illustrated with outstanding imagery, also brings this era to life through contemporary documents.
