Trojca is probably not a name known to many outside of Poland. Out of the blue they have just published a mighty tome on that six engined flying elephant the Gigant. In English too. But it comes at a price, $75, and weighs in at 2 KG so the shipping will probably make you wince. However, if this is your obsession then you'll just have to have it.

While the Gigant may not quite be an obsession with me, it looks like a worth while investment, especially if the Mammut is expanded on a bit more than elsewhere(as in, not a whole lot).
I agree, though, that the price is a tad steep.

Well, I have a few of Trojkas books and I personally do not think there are good.
Fw200 was a big disappointment and BV 222 was only little better. The armour books "*** at war" I have are ok, but the printing quality of the photos is also not good. (I got these on sale for 20 Euro each so I think I got what I paid for)
Considering Trojka brings out umpteen books per year I wonder how deeply these are researched or if they are just a money printing machine...
just my two cent
