Servicable P-47 monograph...,
By
This review is from: P-47d Bubbletop (Paperback)
...but can't really stand on its own.This is a Mushroom Model Publication Yellow Series book. It's a 6-1/2" x 9-1/2", 128 page, square bound hardcover. Like most Yellow Series books there is no service history of any sort. It has three basic sections. The first section describes the various production blocks of the "bubbletop" P-47s - the late P-47D, the P-47M, and P-47N models. It has some very well done line drawings, black and white photographs, specifications, list of aces, etc. The second section has color close up photographs of preserved P-47s - almost 70 pages supplemented by technical manual illustrations. The third section consists of color profiles, the majority of which are of exported aircraft. This title is aimed at the modeler more so than most Mushroom titles. Restricting the scope to the "bubbletop" (teardrop shaped, 360 degree view, clear) canopy models is somewhat artificial otherwise. Nevertheless, the title largely succeeds within the limits sets and modelers will be pleased. The general enthusiast will probably want to check out more definitive P-47 titles. In either case, with the title out of print, I couldn't recommend either group making heroic efforts to pick this title up.
