Reseña del editor

Of the scores of combat aircraft that flew during World War II, many became legends in their day, and were made all the more memorable by the skill, courage and heroism of the pilots who flew them. In this superbly illustrated collection, Nicolas Trudgian, foremost among the new generation of aviation artists, pays tribute to these legendary aircraft and their pilots. Over 40 full-color finished paintings are supported and enhanced by preliminary sketches, vignettes and working drawings, all of which give unparalleled insight into Trudgian's working methods. Each painting is accompanied by a short text that both sets the scene and locates the incident in its wider historical context, extending the book's appeal to military historians as well as collectors of aviation art.
