While this seems to be one of the better Luftwaffe unit histories that the author has written for Osprey, one basically knows the story here; rising to glory in 1940-1941 only to lose the battle of attrition. JG53's particular distinction might have been to reflect this dichotomy in somewhat sharper contrast than some of its sister units, in that it was graced with the presence of Werner Molders when he was glorified with the award of the Knight's Cross, only to be scapegoated with the running series of defeats Germany received in North Africa and the Mediterranean from late 1942 into 1943.

Arguably the archetypal Luftwaffe fighter unit of World War 2, JG 53 aircraft were encountered on almost every fighting front from the first day of hostilities until the last. During almost six years of near-constant campaigning, JG 53 took a steady toll of Allied aircraft in every theatre it fought over. The variety of camouflage finishes worn by its machines -winter white, desert dapple and Reich's defence black and the progression of variants are reflected in an eye-opening colour section. John Weal has spent several years researching in German archives and this, together with his personal contact with several veterans, results in an authoritative and human account of JG 53's long and eventful war.
