FIGHTERS OF THE IRON CROSS

Last book by Jerry Crandall –  Fighters of the Iron Cross, Men and Machines of the Jagdwaffe.

Over the course of 2021 Jerry and I worked on his book Fighters of the Iron Cross featuring 14 different fighter pilots who flew Fw 190s and Bf 109s. Jerry began interviewing, recording first-hand accounts, gathering data, photos and Flugbücher in the 1960s. Working off and on this book through the years, we entered the home stretch with a May 2021 release. Sadly, Jerry passed away a short year later in June, 2022.

It is a 12” X 9”, 360 page full color book, about the size of the Fw 190 Dora books. Color notes with 72 full color aircraft profiles, 481 period photos, many of which have not previously been published are included. Numerous charts and graphs relevant to the aircraft are also presented.

As with some of our past books, there is a standard edition and a limited edition, signed by 13 various Luftwaffe pilots. Standard edition $85 U.S.D.; signed, limited edition $225.00 U.S.D.

The deluxe, limited edition, has been signed on a special page that is bound directly into the book. The edition is limited to only 350 signed copies. Signatories include:

Hans-Ekkehard Bob, Oskar Bösch, Gerhard Hanf, Rolf Hermichen, Gerhard Kroll, Elias Paul Kühlein, Wilhelm Moritz, Siegfried, Müller, Horst Petzschler, Karl Pütt, Herbert Schlüter, Gerhard Thyben, Willi Unger.
