Issued without a dust jacket. -- A historical study of the Imperial German Air Army during World War I, written by the man who led it during its most critical years. It provides a rare insider perspective on the rapid evolution of military aviation from simple observation balloons to massed fighter and bomber operations. Historical Significance: - Author's Perspective: The work was written by General Ernest von Hoeppner, who was the Commanding General of the German Army Air Service (the Luftstreitkräfte) from October 1916 until the end of the war in 1919; - Original Publication: It was first published in German in 1921 as Deutschlands Krieg in der Luft. The 1994 Battery Press edition represents the first edition in English, translated by J. Hawley Larned. The book traces the transition from pre-war balloon and aviation companies to the massive expansion necessitated by total war. It covers the entire history of German military aviation across all major theatres of the Great War. Operations are detailed not only on the Western Front in France, but also in Russia, the Balkans, Romania, Palestine, and Italy. Hoeppner discusses his own efforts to reorganise the fragmented air services, which included increasing the number of fighter squadrons (Jastas) and developing strategies for massed air attacks to counter Allied numerical superiority. The text examines all aspects of the air army, including airships (Zeppelins), observation aircraft, fighter aviation, and ground-attack units. N° de réf. du vendeur 012911
