This was the first of the very successful "At War" series and also broke new ground in that attempted to give an historical account using information from both sides and not just another repeat of wartime propaganda. The first detailed account of a Luftwaffe aircraft's war record in English, this book was well received for what it attempted to do and was also subsequently published in Germany and Japan as well as the USA. It broke new ground and since then there have been many books on the subject, of varying accuracy and quality. This book demonstrated that the carefully cultivated myth that the Ju.87 was finished by the Battle of Britain in 1940 was so much nonsense. Profusely illustrated with pre-war as well as wartime photographs of actions, aircraft and pilots, it led the way to the host of books on the subject that followed. The part played by the Junkers Ju87 dive bomber in Germany's stunning victories are well known, what was less publicised was her subsequent equally deadly careers as a ship-buster in the Mediterranean and as a tank-buster on the Eastern Front, her role in the German victories at Crete, Tobruk, and in the Aegean as late as the autumn of 1943, and her final days as a Night Bomber. The Stuka, in truth, fought from day one of the war to the very last day in the front line.
