Book Description

Luftwaffe At War December 18, 1998
This exciting on-going series covers every aspect of the Luftwaffe in World War II and charts the rise and fall of this mighty force. Each volume makes use of over a hundred rare and valuable photographs, many of them taken by Luftwaffe personnel, to bring history to life and record both the men and the aircraft they flew. The Ju 87 Stuka dive-bomber dominated the opening campaigns of WWII. It was a primary weapon of German Blitzkrieg tactics and the concept of lightning warfare. Stuka Spearhead profiles the infamous warfare tactics of Germany's deadly Stuka dive-bomber.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sirens Of Death, October 8, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Stuka Spearhead: The Lightning War from Poland to Dunkirk, 1939-1940 (Luftwaffe At War) (Paperback)
The JU-87 Stuka was one of the most spectacular dive bombers ever invented. It's reputation of spreading fear amongst the ground forces was great and this book shows just that. The phrase "death came screaming down on them" was very true in the case of the Stuka's attack. If you are looking for a great source to explore the legend of this bomber, then look no further. Still reading what I am writing? What are you waiting for? Order this book at once through amazon.com and get behind the power of the JU-87 Stuka and learn about this aircraft and the men who flew them and their ground crews.

When the German decision was taken to attack Poland, it was with the firm knowledge that the Luftwaffe was even more ready for war in September 1939 than it had been a year earlier at the time of the Munich climb-down. Read the first page
