Austro-Hungarian
Albatros Aces Of World
War 1
£9.65
Austro-Hungarian industry produced a series of poor fighter types such as the Phonix D I & Hansa-Brandenburg D I during the early stages of the war & it was not until licence-built examples of the battle-proven Albatros & D II & D III began to reach Fliegerkompagnien or Fliks in May 1917 that the fortunes of pilots began to look up. Unlike the German-built Albatrosen the Oeffag aircraft were far more robust than German D IIs & D IIIs. They also displayed superior speed climb manoeuvrability & infinitely safer flight characteristics. The careful cross-checking of Allied sources with Austrian & German records form the basis for a detailed reconstruction of the dogfights fought by the leading aces. It will also chart the careers of the Austro-Hungarian aces that flew the D II & D III their successes & their defeats with additional information about their personal background & their post-war lives in the nations born from the collapse of the Hapsburg Empire. ...

Austro-Hungarian
Battleships 1914-18
£6.89
Austria-Hungary did not have an overseas empire; its empire lay within its own boundaries & the primary purpose of its navy until the beginning of the twentieth century was the defense of its coastline. As its merchant marine dramatically grew admirals believed that the navy should take a more proactive policy of defense. The 1890s saw the beginning of a series of naval building programs that would create a well-balanced modern fleet. Cruisers were constructed for the protection of overseas trade & for showing the flag but the decisive projection of Austria-Hungarys commitment to control the Adriatic was the construction of a force of modern battleships. Despite the naval arms race throughout Europe at the time the navy had difficulty obtaining funds for new ships. The difficulties experienced in battleship funding & construction mirrored the political difficulties & ethnic rivalries within the empire. Nevertheless by August of 1914 the Austro-Hungarian had a fleet of battleships. This book details the five classes of Austro-Hungarian battleships in service during World War I. ...
