This review is from: Peace Was Their Profession: Strategic Air Command: A Tribute (Hardcover)
With only one other review I had to write and give my opinion. I had the opportunity to view this book at my local hobby shop. Because of the price I decided to look at Amazon - BUT - I found this book to be extremely interesting in its content. Being an old SAC crewdog, it brought back alot of great memories of a proud service and the people that made it work. Most of the photos were obviously taken by members of SAC while on duty. Not an easy task given the security measures we all had to follow. While it may not win any awards for its photography, I find the book to be accurate and a must have. I must admit that my preview of the book was only 90 minutes long. The owner asked if I was going to buy it because he wasn't operating a reading room. I'm sure once a copy is in my library my rating number will be a 5.

5.0 out of 5 stars Peace Was Their Profession: Sac : A Tribute by Mike Hill, May 20, 2007

WOW -- what an emotional experience reading this book was! If you have lived it, you will love the book. Recommended for all "SAC orphans" who spent their lives under that umbrella and would do it all again in a heartbeat.

1.0 out of 5 stars A BIG DISAPPOINTMENT, January 22, 2000
By 
Charles (Belfast, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Peace Was Their Profession: Strategic Air Command: A Tribute (Hardcover)
This should have been a worthy tribute to SAC but its content has been badly let down by appalling standards of reproduction.

Schiffer books are not cheap and this one is no exception so it would be reasonable to hope that the highest standards of printing would prevail. Not so! There's hardly a pure black or white tone in the whole book - nothing but muddy greys. The colour shots (those that aren't faded overall to pink, that is) have tone reproduction that is harsh, contrasty and garish.

I've bought other Schiffer books and been happy with the print quality so this one came as a surprise and a big let-down. If you see this book on sale at half-price, save your money - it really doesn't deserve shelf space.
