While others think that a certain other book may be better; I disagree. I love the layout of the book; and the text is written by knowledgeable authors. There are a number of artworks; scale plans and annotations indicating the detail differences between the different marks and block numbers. The photos are also well reproduced; most of which are in color.This book is hard to find at a reasonable price; especially in mint condition; but it is well worth the hunt to track one down. You will not regret it.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Pretty goodBy Richard C. PorterPretty good. Gets way more deep into the acronyms than I care for. The hard covers have curved in just a few days after I'd received it; so I don't know if it was stored in a humid place or not. It is a ridiculous price for a book that was originally $30; but I go nuts with a purchase like this once-in-awhile.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Truly a Book for Tomcat fans!!!By Thomas J. KwokI just bought a used a copy of this book and was a little apprehensive- being this is the most expensive used book I ever purchased! Now I must say it is the best book on the F-14! As a fine scale modeler I found the information; photos; diagrams and drawings of each machine extremely useful - some never seen published elsewhere. As other reviewers say this is the book on the big CAT! Worth every penny! If you are a diehard and serious F-14 fan this is the book that needs to be on your shelf! After studying the pictures it has inspired me to try to build machines with exotic markings and paint schemes that previously reluctant to try! Unfortunately it is out of print and does command a high price!
