From the dust jacket: "During the last ten years German author and aviation researcher Axel Urbanke has meticulously accumulated material for this work. He tracked down former pilots of the Gruppe who are still living, as well as the families of pilots killed in action, and interviewed them about the events of that time. He visited locations where dogfights and crashes had taken place, and talked to eye-witnesses, at the same time conducting extensive research in German, American, and English military archives. Finally Axel Urbanke integrated the results of his research with the actual 500-plus page wartime diary of III. /JG 54, in which reports from participants, passages from Luftwaffe documents, excerpts form letters and diaries, and statements of witnesses on the ground vividly recall the evens of more than fifty years ago.
