This review is from: The Hamlyn Concise Guide to British Aircraft of World War II (Hardcover)
If I had to have only one book to cover all of British WW2 aviation, this would be it. Although small in size (10x6")it manages to cover over 100 aircraft built by the British in WW2. Planes from trainers to massive bombers, prototypes that never flew to famous aircraft such as the Hurricane, Spitfire, Lancaster, Mosquito are all captured here.
Short historys of the planes, data and statistics for each, color illustrations for the majority of them, this book is a great reference. When in print, it was a bargin at $13.00. A very handy reference tool, I have used this book many times when in search of a quick fact without delving into a more comprehensive study. It can be used by modelers, although the color illustrations are small and can be limited. I definately recommend this book to all aviation fans.

This review is from: The Hamlyn Concise Guide to British Aircraft of World War II (Hardcover)
I am a big fan of airplane especially this one. British aircraft of world war II is the most favourite in design but that also the same with American and Axis.
Good references for my cartoon comic art and yet it's affordable.
