Broken Eagles - Hardcover

This book is the first of a two-volume work recording all of the known losses of Luftwaffe aircraft over the north-east of England, from the Humber to the Tweed, during the Second World War. This volume covers Yorkshire and its coastline, from the Humber to the Tees: it gives detailed descriptions of the nature and circumstances of the loss of each of the seventy aircraft and their crews, and tells the stories that lie behind the bald statistics.

Middlesborough born author Bill Norman is an aviation historian with a particular interest in the North Eastern counties. For many years he has been researching the air war over the North of England during World War II and a number of articles written by him on that theme have appeared in the northern press and in the aviation magazines Flypast and Aviation News. It was the public response to those articles which promoted him to compile Luftwaffe over the North. He is married, has four children and lives in Guisborough, Cleveland.
