Description: Fighter Aircraft Of The 1914-1918 War, 2nd Impression UK, W.M. Lamberton Letchworth, 1960, Herts . A HARLEYFORD ( Harborough) SERIES publication. 8 1/2 x 11, NO DUST JACKET, VG/VG- CONDITION, 2ND UK IMPRESSION, 224 pp, numerous illus & drgs. Superb technical reference work on all fighter aircraft of the Great War. This book is concerned with that period of some 40 to 50 years ago when the forcing house of a World War produced the first military aircraft, and in a space of only 4 years developed the designs from mere 'stick-and-string' creations, to the highly specialized types evolved and used at the end of that conflict.An earlier 'HARBOROUGH' title-Air Aces of the 1914-1918 dealt with the fighter PILOTS of that War. This book completes the picture by describing the AIRCRAFT in which these 'Aces' flew.The space available in some 224 pages has enabled the compilers to describe no less than 84 aircraft most comprehensively in text, photographs and 1/72 scale 3-view drawings.Altogether, there are just over 700 photographs in this book, a number of which will be of special interest to builders of solid scale models; as included are about 150 `close-ups' of parts of aircraft, such as machine guns and various types of mountings, engines, engine installations and exhaust systems, cockpit layouts and under-carriage arrangements.There are a number of very complete Tables of dimensions and performance figures of not only these 84 aircraft, but 79 lesser-known types; additionally, over one hundred near-operational, rare and experimental aircraft are illustrated with photographs.Now, for the first time, every detail it is possible to obtain is incorporated in one copiously illustrated volume, forming a complete record of all the Fighters of the 1914-1918 War period.
