The Blue Max Airmen series is the real story of the German airmen awarded the Pour le Mérite during the Great War. Author Lance J. Bronnenkant, PhD., and Aeronaut Books are pleased to bring you the most detailed and graphically lavish account of these heroes ever produced, covering the men in context with the warâs chronology of events. For each recipient a comprehensive, well-illustrated biography of the man is given, together with photos of the aircraft he flew, followed by details of his service, including other awards won. Color profiles of the aircraft are also provided for interest to enthusiasts and as references for modelers.
Volume 17 covers little-known 54-victory ace Erich Loewenhardt and notorious ace Hermann Göring. Volume 17 includes 160 photographs and 15 color illustrations of aircraft flown by these aces in its 156 pages.
