Customer Reviews

A Superb Collection of Action photos capturing the moment
This book is an excellent book with many colour plates. I like books that don't have masses of writing and this is one that you can read and reread despite comprising mainly of pictures. As a local to many of the illustrated airfields its great to see just how they were when active. This book is a must for any USAAF fan.
