Hardbound. Etat : Good. Description: Dust jacket design by Brian Rockett. Photo frontis and a double page map (there are no other illustrations). Foreword by Peter Townsend. ''The entire Sicilian campaign lasted only two months. For the Luftwaffe's 77th Fighter Group and its commander, Major Johannes Steinhoff, it was a lost cause from the day they arrived on the island, exhausted by defeat in North Africa. But it has impressed itself upon Steinhoff's memory as the first time he and his men allowed themselves to think that they were being asked to do the impossible and the absurd and that the war might tie lost. This evokes the bittersweet feeling of that short time in Sicily, the romance of the war in the air mingled with a growing sense of helplessness and doom. General Steinhoff writes of great events with epic simplicity; the narrative follows him through eight crucial days in the struggle for the island - locked in combat with the RAF, drinking in the evenings with his men in their bomb-proof grotto, and lingers on the elegiac descriptions of the German fighter pilot and his Messerschmitt 109 in the days when both were worthy opponents for any enemy.''
