ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Below are presented thumbnails of the book pictures. They are not enlarged here when you click on them : because they were published previously as books, sold to pay back the printing. Now, downloading them is free, hoping to share a personal fascination for the so peculiar "twin-boom part" of aircraft dreams.

128 pages, in French with an English abstract (2 pages).
[This book is now available for FREE, for home-printing, at http://www.kristofmeunier.fr/Free_EoFG_MV.htm as the initial unpublished version with small font characters, 103 pages]

These books about 1939-45 projects include many drawings belonging to the "Luftwaffe 1946" subject, and thus may be accused of :

• racist vows that the IIIrd Reich would have won the Second World War, slaughtering the Jewish and Slavic people
• morbid vows of a longer war, with millions more of deaths

This is completely wrong here. These books of mine deal only with projects that were NOT turned into actual weapons, killing innocents. The guns have been removed from the source drawings – even if this is almost an insult for veteran heroes (whose friends died for us to live in a quiet world…), even if this is a problem to understand the very logic of some shapes (justified by nose guns, rear guns…).

There is a problem for a peaceful dreamer just loving any weird aircraft, including military ones… My next book, "Virtual Mustangs. Playing with the profile of the 'most beautiful aircraft in the World' " has been a self-therapy for this uncomfortable feeling. My very first book (author name : E. Rozenbladt, "publisher" : La Pensée Universelle) was titled "Against reality. Reasons to turn back toward dreams"… but aviation-enthusiasm (from a childhood enjoyed as a modeller) has been too strong, and History rejection has not been complete. Otherwise, "Forked Ghosts" would not have been written at all…

These books about 1939-45 projects are not war-related at all for me : there were just far too many twin-boom projects in the 1896-1996 period, and so it was necessary to focus on a few years, and a period as famous as possible, to be understood by everyone.
Of course, for Belgium and Netherlands, the war occured in 1940-45, for USA and USSR : 1941-45, for Japan and China : 1937-45. Choosing the French point of vue (together with UK, Germany, Poland...), I do not mean at all that my country is the best in the World, I just used what I had learnt at school and what I was hearing on TV...
