About this item
Author: Bernard Fitzsimons
Publisher: Phoebus
Pagination: 160
Format: Hardback
Condition: Very good, wi9th edge wearand some sunning along the spine.
1st Edition.
This book probably contains all the information the reader might wish to find about warplanes from what was easily the great age of aerial combat - the First World War (1914-1918). Sadly the book contains no index, so one has to read this book in order to find anything specific.
The book itself gives the appearance of being a collection of magazines from that hugely successful series "Purnell's History of the First World War." In other words, a collection of non-glossy magazines stuck together with all the title pages missing.
Having said that, it does provide an excellent account of the emergence of the aircraft as a fighting machine of war during one of the greatest periods of carnage which some generals - speaking from the safety of their bunkers several miles from any battlefield, called war.
