Osprey Pub Co, 2011. New book, 96 pages, ESS72. The Jacobite Rebellion was the final attempt of the House of Stuart to re-establish itself on the British throne and it saw the death throes of the independent martial prowess of the Highland clans. No event in British history has been more heavily romanticized, but Gregory Fremont-Barnes succeeds in stripping away the myths to reveal the key events of this crucial period. From questions of dynastic succession to religious dominance, the events leading to the Rebellion are carefully explained and analyzed, drawing upon a host of primary research. From the landing of Bonnie Prince Charlie to the battle of Culloden, this book offers a complete overview of the Rebellion, complete with detailed maps and beautiful period illustrations.. Soft Cover. As New. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Osprey Pub Co, 2000. New book, 128 pages, AEU001. Tracing its roots to Manfred, Freiherr von Richthofen's 'Flying Circus' of WWI, the Jagdgeschwader 'Richthofen' is arguably the most famous fighter unit of all time. Designated JG 1 during the Great War, then disbanded following defeat, the Jagdgeschwader reformed as JG 132. By September 1939 the unit had become JG 2, seeing much action during the Blitzkrieg and Battle of Britain. This first in a new series focusing on elite fighter and bomber units, charts the career of JG 2 from its first aerial kills in 1939 to the destruction of its own Fw 190s in the face of the Allied advance in 1945. . Soft Cover. As New. Illus. by Laurier, Jim. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Osprey Pub Co, 2003. New book, 128 pages, AEU012. Synonymous with the Afrika Korps and the campaign in North Africa, JG 27 provided Rommel's army with fighter protection for virtually the whole roller coaster ride that was the war in the Western Desert from 1941-43. Formed in Germany on 1 October 1939 (with Adolf Galland as CO of I.Gruppe), JG 27 saw considerable action both during the Battles of France and Britain, downing 146 aircraft in the latter campaign alone. Sent to North Africa in April 1941, the geschwader had an immediate impact on the campaign, which had up until then been dominated by the Allies. The third volume in the Aviation Elite series on a German fighter geschwader, this book will once again prove popular with Luftwaffe enthusiasts and hobbyists alike. . Soft Cover. As New. Illus. by Weal, John. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Panzer Tracts, 2024. New book, 98 pages, No.9-3, Revised and reprinted by Panzerwrecks 2024. For Panzer Tracts No.9-3: Jagdpanther, the Panzer Tracts team spent hundreds of hours accurately measuring every surviving Jagdpanther and over a thousand hours drawing at full scale and creating as-built drawings to the same tolerances demanded of the original assembly firms. Authors Thomas Jentz and Hilary Doyle devoted hundreds of research hours to finding the numerous previously unnoticed modifications. They created 'flat-plane' drawings of many components to aid modellers in making accurate parts that are hard to replicate when only drawn at an angle. As a result, this book is packed with information about the development, history, production, unit organisation, issue, tactics, and wartime reports from front-line units. This 98-page book is extensively illustrated with 44 pages of the most accurate 1:35, 1:20 and 1:10 scale CAD drawings available and 60 clear photographs of the Jagdpanther.… Read More

Pen & Sword, 2017. New book, 64 pages. Combining the destructive firepower of the 88mm gun with the outstanding mobility of the Panther series, the Jagdpanther is quite probably the best-known tank destroyer of the Second World War. In the vehicle's first action on 30 July 1944, three Jagdpanthers managed to destroy eleven British tanks in a vicious two minute firefight near the village of Les Loges in Normandy, cementing the Jagdpanther's reputation as a potent tank killer. In his fifth book in the TankCraft series, Dennis Oliver uses contemporary photographs and meticulously researched, superbly presented colour and monochrome illustrations to tell the story of these heavy self-propelled anti-tank guns and the units which operated them in the German defence of the Western Front. As with all the books in the TankCraft series, a large part of this work showcases available model kits and aftermarket products, complemented by a gallery of expertly constructed and painted models.

Panzer Tracts, 2024. New book, 80 pages, No.9-2, revised and reprinted by Panzerwrecks 2024. Panzer Tracts No.9-2: Jagdpanzer IV sees Panzer gurus Thomas Jentz and Hilary Doyle document the development, production and combat history of the various versions of Jagdpanzer IV. The Panzer Tracts team produced highly accurate CAD drawings for three Jagdpanzers, two Panzer IV/70(V), and one Panzer IV/70(A), and the dates of significant modifications are correctly determined. Precise measurement of the seven survivors' external features revealed that the Panzer IV/70(V) superstructure roof was 30mm shorter than the standard Jagdpanzer - and the Panzer IV/70(A) roof is still shorter! In addition to 12 pages of 1:35 scale CAD drawings, three pages of 1:10 scale drawings of particular components, tools and holders are included. As is their standard, the text and data are only ever based on primary sources. Working closely with Hilary Doyle, Panzerwrecks has overhauled this important book with more pages and… Read More

Pen & Sword, 2020. New book, 64 pages. Combining the destructive firepower of the 75mm gun with the mobility of the Pzkpfw IV medium tank , the Jagdpanzer IV was quite possibly the most effective tank destroyer of the Second World War.
