Wings of the Allies the European War, Volume 2
Eagle Editions are well known to modelers and aviation historians alike. This is the latest in the “Wings of the Allies” series. It contains 36 pages of mostly never before published photographs and eight color profiles.
The types of aircraft covered in this volume are, P-38 Lightning, Tomahawk Mk. IIb, P-47 Thunderbolt, P-51 Mustang, RAF Mustang Mk I and IVA, Hurricane, Spitfire, P-39Q, Mosquito, A-20 Havoc/Boston,B-26 Marauder, Whitley Mk.V, Wellington, Pe-2, SB-2, B-17 Flying Fortress, B-24 Liberator, and the Lancaster. The photos give a good look at markings and nose art. The last part of the book contains “A Closer Look” at B-17 Outhouse Mouse, with crew and service information which is well illustrated. The book concludes with some gorgeous profiles by James Bentley! Another genuinely nice new feature is a foldout sheet printed front and back with the Eagle Edition decal sheets available for the aircraft featured in volumes one and two.
I can definitely recommend this book to modelers and historians alike. With so many never-before-seen photos there is so much new information! I would like to thank Eagle Editions for the review copy and IPMS/USA for the opportunity!
