Synopsis
This highly illustrated book is the second in a two-volume work that records all known Luftwaffe losses over NE England during WWII. The first volume, Broken Eagles - Luftwaffe Losses over Yorkshire, was published by Leo Cooper/Pen & Sword in 2001. At least 64 German aircraft crashed in Northumberland and Durham, or off their respective coastlines, during WWII and 256 German aircrew became casualties of war. This book records in fascinating detail the losses of the German aircraft and personnel. It also describes the exciting and dramatic circumstances in which such losses occurred and the reactions of people involved.
