4.0 out of 5 stars Nice Photo-History of the Korean Air War!, March 8, 2006
This review is from: Air War over Korea - Aircraft Specials series (6082) (Paperback)
Jim Mesko, who has written a number of military history books for Squadron/Signal, gives the Korean air war the once-over in this comprehensive, eminently readable summary of that long ago conflict.

Given the limitations of a 64-page S/S "Special," Mesko does a good job of summarizing the air action. While the subject has been covered before by other books, Mesko's comments on the U.S. ace race and combat ops by Russian and Eastern Bloc pilots adds a little spice to a familiar story.

Mesko's text is nicely complemented by dozens of black and white and color photos along with eight pages of color profiles by Don Greer. Many of the photos are new and Greer's artwork, as always, is wonderfully done.

All in all, a nicely priced, well-written and illustrated introduction to the subject.

****

An aside: Some day I hope Squadron/Signal does a "Best of Don Greer" book. His profiles and cover artwork are absolutely top-notch.
