"...does a good job showing a relatively unknown side of Goering
without trying to glorify the man. The photographs are accompanied
by text that explains Goering's journey through the war. The book
is thought provoking; it makes the reader consider that men like
Goering did not spring from the womb a full fledged degenerate
Nazi. Rather one must consider his origin and journey as a
relatively normal person before later events influenced his
decisions."-- "Military Heritage"
"These superb photographs from Goering's own personal albums
visually chronicle the evolution and operations of German military
aviation in the Great War. More importantly and interestingly, they
provide a glimpse into the little-known life and World War I
service of this air ace and Blue Max awardee, later destined to
become Deputy Fuehrer of Germany during the second worldwide
conflict."-- "International Bibliography of Military History"
