1st printing. Written by John Weal. This book combines Aircraft of the Aces 6: Focke-Wulf FW 190 Aces of the Russian Front and Aircraft of the Aces 37: Bf 109 Aces of the Russian Front. Luftwaffe pilots of the Russian Front were the highest scoring aces of any aerial conflict in history. This book traces the careers of the pilots who flew the Fw 190 and the Bf 109 in the skies over Russia, and reveals how they achieved their remarkable successes. The Bf 109 was the most commonly used fighter on the Front, and saw action from Operation Barbarossa through to the Defence of the Reich in 1945. The Fw 190, meanwhile, proved itself to be arguably Germany's best piston-engined fighter, with many of its aces scoring over 100 kills. Softcover, 192 pages, Text (With color and B&W photos). Cover price $24.95.

1st printing. Story and art by Nathan Hale. In this installment of the New York Times-bestselling graphic novel series, take to the skies with the flying aces of World War I. When the Great War began in 1914, America had plans to stay out of it. But some young men were so eager to fight, they joined the French foreign legion. From deep in the mud and blood of the Western Front, these young volunteers looked to the sky and saw the future-the airplane. The first American pilots to fight in World War One flew for the French military. France created a squadron of volunteer Americans called the Lafayette Escadrille (named after the great Marquis de Lafayette). This book is about that volunteer squadron. How they got into the French military. How they learned to fly. How they fought-and died. And how these American pilots would go down in history with other legendary flying aces, like the Red Baron and his Flying Circus. Hardcover, 5-in. x 8-in., 128 pages, 2C. Cover price $14.99.
