| New Osprey Series: Duels
I happened to take a gander at a 2007 Osprey catalogue and noticed a new series of books entitled Duels. The series intends to explore the "design, development and deployment of various opposing weapons systems with an emphasis on how the weapons performed against one another on the battlefield.
I have not located any images online and have not had time to scan any images from the catalogue but here is a rundown of the first books planned for this series, due out in October 2007. I think retail price is $17.95.
Duel 1: P-51 Mustang vs Fw 109: Europe 1943–45
Duel 2: Sherman Firefly vs Tiger: Normandy 1944
Duel 3: U-Boats vs Destroyer Escorts: The Battle of the Atlantic
Duel 4: Panther vs T-34: Ukraine 1943
Duel 5: Spitfire vs Bf 109: Battle of Britain
Duel 6: USN Carriers vs IJN Carriers: Pacific 1942 |
