Supermarine Spitfire av Chaz Bowyer

An authoritative book on all makes and models of spitfire aircraft. Good coverage of each theater of operations too. Dated a bit (published 1980).

Mosquito, Typhoon, Tempest at War av Arthur Reed

I have not read much about British aircraft from WWII. The topic has never really caught me. But for these three types I have a little more than ordinary interest. The Mosquito because it has such beautiful lines and such a high performance as only the British can make them on a good day. The Typhoon and Tempest because they ended up being formidable fighter bombers, fully on par with the P-47 Thunderbolt, USAAF's fighter bomber par excellence

This is a good and informative book which I can recommend without reservations… (mer)
