Book Has Real Appeal For Me But Feels Like It Wasn't Ready For PublishingBy Don KidwellGood concept but between editing errors and absent/incorrect photos used it could stand for some help. I found it at it's best for including some lesser known planes like those from Japan and the German Blohm Voss Bv 238. As a counter point ; no mention was made of any Russian planes or American fighters which I found lacking. Photos were genuine tho an empty space was present for the Blohm Voss Bv 238 and instead of picturing the German Bf 109 the Me 262 Schwalbe was substituted instead (something that could be easily rectified). Grammatical errors included passages like "They acted like competitors; they secrets to themselves..." (Location 72) together with redundant passages like "Fighter planes were very fast and designed for air-to-air combat with the enemy. They were very fast..." (Location 75). Did further spur my interest in this subject so do have to give it credit and otherwise an interesting read. I will be trying another of this author's' works at a later date.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Legends of HistoryBy markPoorly written with many factual errors. The author also needs to review what he has written as the grammar is atrocious.
