This review is from: Military Aircraft, 1919-1945: An Illustrated History of Their Impact (Weapons and Warfare) (Hardcover)
This book is one of the poorest on the subject I have ever seen. It neither provides any analyisis or context about the developnment of the technologies involved. Much of the text is merely a recitation of technical specifications better presented in tabular form, with no connection to the technical and tactical developments of the period.
The photographs are neither well chosen nor informative. Save your money, there are many better books on the subject out there, send this one to pulp.

It covers a crucial era in military development and should be a part of any serious military collection and many a general-interest lending library.
