Martinez, Eduardo Manuel GilTHE SPANISH CIVIL WAR IN THE AIR, VOLUME 1: 1936-1937 Chronicles the Spanish Civil War's early air battles, showing how foreign aircraft and pilots shaped modern aerial warfare. Charts the early evolution of this conflict from the improvised beginnings of the July uprising to the fierce battles for air superiority over Madrid and the Basque country. Describes how outdated pre-war aircraft were swiftly replaced by modern foreign types, how Spanish and foreign pilots alike learned deadly lessons in combat, and how these experiences shaped the tactical thinking that later defined the Blitzkrieg and Soviet air doctrines. Key events such as the world's first sustained air bridge between Spanish Morocco and the mainland, the rapid formation of the Condor Legion and the Aviazione Legionaria, and the introduction of Soviet fighters and bombers to the Republican cause are all vividly recounted. Also explores the men behind the machines. Depicts the aircraft, insignia, and emblems of all participants.
