Author: Philip Jarrett

A collection of 150 much-loved and significant planes spanning over 100 years of aviation history. Includes photographs, artwork, spec details and descriptive notes, with humorous and first-hand quotes. Cloth binding and retro-styling evoke a sense of authenticity and nostalgia which will appeal to "boys" of all ages.

This chunky format, retro-feel encylopedia reviews 150 of the most incredible planes in aviation history from the earliest pioneers to present day feats of engineering. Each aeroplane is evocatively illustrated and accompanied by informative text and a jolly useful specification box that also includes aircraft silhouettes. Distributed generously throughout the book are delightful photographic spreads showing aeroplanes that are typical of their era. This affectionate look at weird and wonderful aircraft, both civil and military, is divided chronologically into six chapters. Each chapter comprises a selection of the featured period's most incredible planes and three contextual photographic spreads.
