HAWKER TYPHOON 1940 TO SPRING 1943 WINGLEADER PHOTO ARCHIVE NUMBER 16

Description: HAWKER TYPHOON 1940 TO SPRING 1943 WINGLEADER PHOTO ARCHIVE NUMBER 16by Chris Tomas, 80 pagesWhen we first set out on this series, our aim was not only to reproduce the best wartime photographs available, but also to have the most knowledgeable authors on the subject to write about them. I think we’ve been very successful in both aims so far and for Number 16 I’m delighted to welcome a new author to the team who certainly fits that brief.Chris Thomas, the son of a Typhoon pilot, is probably the world’s leading expert on the Hawker Typhoon and has an incredible reference library on this classic fighter. Originally we thought about having one volume on the Typhoon and one on the Tempest, but with Chris’s archive and knowledge, we think that we may stretch to four or even five books on the two aircraft.This first one covers the early days of Typhoon development and operations and includes the usual mix of high-res wartime photos, informative captions and plenty of ‘I never knew that’ moments, especially in the area of recognition markings which these early Typhoons saw their fair share of.As with all the books in this series, we’ve enhanced the photos to pull out the shadow detail and have added arrows and letters to identify points of interest.This book contains approx 120 original wartime/pre-war photos and 6 in-depth colour profiles All books are entirely in English unless noted otherwise.

I SHIP ANYWHERE ON THIS PLANET.Be assured, though I may not always have the lowest price, you will not get any cheap bookclub editions from me on ebay. I've been selling books for many many years and I can spot cheap bookclubs a mile away. Hand me a book and I'll tell you straight off if it's a bookclub edition. Sometimes it can be hard for most booksellers to know if it's a bookclub, like university press books. They don't normally put the price on the jacket for the publisher's edition, but most of them do use full or partial cloth binding, whereas the bookclub edition will be simply cheap board covers. Though let's face it, most of the publisher's editions these days aren't all that great in quality either, the bookclubs are even worse! Please look at my ebay store where many similar titles are available.
