MMP Books 81159 White Series: The Stockholm Run EN is an exceptional publication aimed at enthusiasts of historical modeling and World War II aviation history. This book by Nils Mathisrud, published by the renowned MMP Books, provides detailed coverage of the titular "Stockholm Run" — secret and dangerous air operations between Great Britain and neutral Sweden during World War II. These extraordinary missions enabled the transport of people, diplomatic mail, secret documents, key technologies, and supplies, making a significant contribution to Allied intelligence activities between 1939 and 1945.

The book offers a unique, in-depth insight into the logistics, aircraft, and crews conducting flights over occupied Europe. Of special note is the rich photographic documentation, including both archival black and white photographs and color illustrations — a total of 80 color pages — showcasing individual aircraft (mainly the Douglas DC-3/C-47 and Consolidated B-24 Liberator), insignia, markings, painting schemes, and equipment details. All graphics are prepared with both scale modelers and aviation historians in mind.

This title is produced to printed book standards, in A4 format on high-quality paper, with a soft cover. The publication will not only enrich the toolkit of aircraft modelers recreating unique paint schemes and markings from the World War II era, but will also provide numerous inspirations and essential information for working on dioramas or historical scenes.

We recommend this book to aircraft modelers of all skill levels, historians, and collectors documenting the history of Allied aviation. The difficulty level for using the materials is rated at 1/5, making it ideal even for beginners. This is a valuable, substantive publication that will enhance your modeling library and help you achieve perfect recreations of historic World War II aircraft!
