This book has been criticized. This book was anathematized without reading. The figures given in it are too incredible: 1400 sorties (2.5 times more than the entire Normandy-Niemen squadron); 800 air battles; 352 downed aircraft. All this is the track record of Erich Hartman, the best ace of the Second World War. Read this book and decide for yourself where the truth is and where the lie is.
