"Rare photos and well-written text make this book a good value for the reader. Additionally, aviation artist Adam Tooby delivers excellent digital artwork, from his dramatic cover illustration to a dynamic two-page cutaway showing the Natter's internal systems. In all, this book is a good read and quality product at a more-than-reasonable price." - Air Classics Magazine". . . a remarkable book that should be popular with fans of rocket-planes, German experimental aircraft, and bizarre designs. Highly recommended." - The Kitmaker Network"Robert Forsyth provides a good introduction to the Bachem Ba 349 Natter with an easy to read style. I especially appreciated his use of first person accounts throughout the book as it puts the reader in the cockpit." - IPMS/USA
