Wow!! This magnificent book by author Axel Urbanke chronicles the life and times of the Focke Wulf pilots of III/JG 54 and two associated gruppen of JG 26 in the 1944-45 time frame. III/JG 54 was the first Luftwaffe unit to be supplied with the newly introduced Focke Wulf D-9 model, the long-nosed "Dora." III/JG 54 saw heavy action in the last years of the war, ceaselessly opposing Allied bomber raids. Their story, as such, is representative of all Luftwaffe pilots in the West. Urbanke's book is military aviation history at its best! A labor of love, the author spent over 10 years researching the subject, tracking down and interviewing surviving Dora-9 pilots or their families, assembling photos, researching archives in Germany and abroad, etc. The results of Urbanke's dedication is this 350-page gem. Everything about this book bespeaks quality - the in-depth research (interviews with 200+ pilots), hundreds of rare photos with detailed captions, ten gorgeous, fold-out color profiles by Jerry Crandall and Tom Tullis, detailed loss and victory lists - this book has it all. Quality doesn't come cheap; my copy of the book cost plenty, but it was money well spent. "Green Hearts" is a limited edition, very high quality book and its cover price reflects that. If you're a serious Luftwaffe enthusiast, you'll love this book. Highly recommended! --M. O'Conner
This is the 'must have' item, if one is researching the FW190 D Series... Library of Eagles (the publisher), has done an exellent job, of telling the story of this aircraft, through words and pictures of the 'Green Hearts', and their introduction to the D-9. It is a well written account covering the Luftwaffe pilots, whom flew the 190D, and the aircraft, itself. Myself, I look forward to Volume 2, of this series - And I without doubt, will add it to my collection. Anyone interested in the evolution of the FW-190, needs to add this book to their collection --E. D. Brown
