This stunning work is a spectacular photographic tribute to 23 of the greatest World War II aircraft still flying today. These beautifully restored warbirds usually take pride of place at airshows in Europe and North America. They include the B-17 Flying Fortress, the Spitfire, the P-51 Mustang and the Lancaster. This book presents a striking series of photographs that evoke their beauty and power. There are dozens of air-to-air photographs showing the aircraft silhouetted against the sky and performing acrobatics. Close-up shots show the armament, cock-pits and markings. There are also evocative photographs of the wartime air bases used by many of these aircraft. Hardback
