I will have to buy a few more books that this author has written. This book contains the most information on one aircraft I have seen to date. Most other aircraft ; military and train books would cover the information in several volumes. Highly recommended6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. A typical Dr William Wolf book. Amazing detail but falls short on editing.By Craig PaffhausenA Typical Dr Wolf Book. Full of amazing insight to the particular subject at hand; well researched and well organized. The failure as always is in the poor editing. If you can think past the sometimes glaring editing mistakes (0.5# bullets instead of 0.5" for a length measurement as an example;) then this is a book for you.I have found no single source with greater detail on the subject of the B-26 Marauder. This book is the best single collection of information on the B-26 currently available.6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Typical Wolf product.By JCALTypical Wolf product. Lot of Museum shots; inclusion of the aircraft manuals. The "Wolf surprise" for this particular volume is the background design information and the proposed derivatives.If there is an updated or expanded 2nd edition;more operational history would be the only significant improvement that could be made to this book.I have purchased most of his books and have the A-20 book on pre-publication order.
