418 pages, very well illustrated, three-views, cloth, DJ, very good. From the dust jacket: In The British Bomber half a century of design and development of over 560 different types is recorded in this analytical and comprehensive narrative, accompanied by 306 photographs and 105 three-view drawings, which have been selected to give as complete a story as possible of this fascinating class of British aeroplane. With the exceptions of the fighter-bomber and the flying-boat, all types capable of carrying bombs or torpedoes are described, including military and naval landplanes and floatplanes, general purpose aircraft, dive-bombers and coastal defence patrol machines, from the beginnings in the days of the R. F. C. And R. N. A. S. Through to the immensely powerful strike-force of the R. A. F. And the F. A. A. Of today. Interspersed among the aircraft which became famous are full details of the other designs which were constructed as prototypes only or remained simply projects but which played their part in the development of those which eventually passed into service. The British Bomber embodies valuable contributions from the archives of the country's aircraft industry and material not previously available from official sources. Extensive data tables are provided to make this the most complete and authoritative history of the British bomber ever published. ; 418 pages

LEWIS, PETER The British Fighter Since 1912. Sixty Years of Design and Development.
London Putnam 1974 0370100492 / 9780370100494 Hard Cover Very Good in Very Good dust jacket
406 pages, well illustrated, many 3-views, cloth, dj, very good. From the publisher: The history covers all categories of fighter, from the early gun0carriers and scouts of the R.F.C. and R.N.A.S. through the colourful biplanes of the inter-war period, into the era of the monoplane in its drab camouflage, with such aircraft as the Spitfire and the Hurricane playing a vital part in the Battle of Britain, and on to the amazing, polished creations of the supersonic age. Many unfinished projects which contributed to the development of the fighter as a weapon are also recorded. The British Fighter, compiled with the generous assistance of the former Air Ministry, also contains a wealth of hitherto 'classified' material which has been released through special facilities granted to the author. He has received valuable cooperation from the British airframe, engine and component manufacturers in presenting an account of the achievements of Britain's designers, engineers and test pilots in the evolution of this major weapon of modern warfare.
