Duel under the stars: A German night fighter pilot in World War II

Hardcover 14x22 cm, 202 pages. When Britain launched its devestating night bombardment campaign against Fortress Europa, the Luftwaffe's Nachtjager squadrons rose to the challenge. Wilhelm Johnen was a Nachtjager from nearly the beginning, and was stationed first in western Europe and then later in the Balkans; he flew Me. 110s for the entirety of his service, and recorded close to 20 kills. His account provides us with a rare glimpse into this aspect of the European air war from the German perspective. William Kimber publishing 1969
