This lovely 1980 first English language edition of "Luftwaffe Test Pilot: Flying captured Allied Aircraft of World War 2" by Hans-Werner Lerche is housed in its original grey dustjacket featuring black and white photographs of various planes Lerche flew. Bound in navy cloth with silver gilt lettering to the spine, this hardback book contains 158 pages of text, peppered with rare wartime photographs, detailing the authors' hair-raising exploits as a Luftwaffe pilot who specialised in figuring out and flying intact Allied planes. This book, and its dustjacket, are in very good condition, with few notable imperfections they appear virtually unread and untouched. This fascinating book is looking for a new home, and would make for a perfect gift for any aviation historian.
