Hi all, ive seen this book for sale online and wonder if its a worthwhile purchase. There doesnt appear to be any reviews of it,
Its called Courage Alone: The Italian Air Force 1940-1943

Its an excellent reference - highly recommended. Covers unit histories in detail including squadrons, groups, wings, fighter, ground attack, bomber and martime units. The first print books are expensive ie., collectables but you should be able to find a paper back.

Highly recommended.

I've just got this book today and wilst I've not read it word for word it must be one of the most comprehensive books about the R.A.
I can't see anyone needing to buy anything else!

Can anyone be specific as to how the new edition compare to the original?

Did Hikoki (Ian Allan) put old wine in a new bottle as they did with the Ullmann book?
