The development, flight testing and service record of the Canberra are detailed in this superbly illustrated history by Roland Beamont - who after a distinguished war record became English Electric's test pilot for the Canberra in 1947 - and renowned aviation journalist Arthur Reed. As can be imagined, with two such authors the book is both authentic and highly readable.

Although built by the U.S. Douglas corporation, the A-20 "Boston" got its name and had some of its finest moments in British service. The first Bostons arrived in England during the Battle of Britain, when aircraft of all sorts were in short supply. It proved to be one of the best light bombers of the war, serving on nearly all fronts and with most of the Allies. Due to its superior bomb-aimer, Bostons led formations of more modern bombers even in the last months of the war.
This is the story of the A-20 Boston aircraft and its deritatives which saw service well into the 1960'. Fully illustrated with b/w photographs plus line drawings.

A photographic and written history of the German Panzer units during World War II. Over 170 photographs. This book shows what it was like to serve in a panzer division, in all theatres of the war in sun and snow, desert and steppe. It also traces the development of German front-line armour through the under-gunned PzKpfw II to the fearsome Tiger - a tank that could take on Shermans single-handed. This is a book for all those who would understand the grim realities of blitzkrieg.
