This Profile should prove popular as it deals with some of the best-known ships in World War II. The British fast minelayers of the Abdielclass were famous for their high speed runs carrying supplies to the beleaguered island of Malta, at a time when all other ships except submarines dared not risk the attempt. The names Abdiel, Latona and particularly Manxman and Welshman will always be associated with the Malta epic, despite the fact that the ships had never been designed for this purpose. Illustrated card covers, black & white illustrations throughout, 4 page color center spread detailing camouflage scheme with side and plan views as well as the ship's badge, side and plan view line drawings providing details of equipment and arrangement, drawings of hull section details and mine rail installations.

The König class were the last dreadnought battleships to join the German High Seas Fleet before the outbreak of war in 1914, and only two more battleships were completed in the next four years. They represent the culmination of eight years of close rivalry with the Royal Navy, and a steady progression of design from the first German dreadnoughts.

It has been more than 30 years since the original and highly acclaimed history of 2nd Tactical Air Force was first published, and it has been long out of print. Now at last, this book is a completely rewritten and greatly expanded account of this important command's vital contribution to the Invasion of Normandy and the defeat of the forces of the Third Reich in Western Europe. The 2nd TAF, equipped with rocket- and bomb-carrying Typhoons, Tempests, Spitfires, Mosquitos, Mustangs and medium bombers, flew ground-attack and tank-busting missions in support of Montgomery's 21st Army Group as it advanced through Normandy and northwest Europe in 1944-45. The medium bomber units struck at enemy transport, ammunition dumps, and communication targets. The 2nd TAF comprised British, Canadian, Polish, Czech, Norwegian, French, South African, Australian, and New Zealand crews. This second volume covers the breakout from Normandy, the advance across the Low Countries, and the German ripostes in the Ardennes and Operation 'Bodenplatte' in the winter that followed.
