"[The book's] size, along with its landscape format and glossy paper, means that photographs, which number in excess of 100 color images, are lavishly reproduced. This is a visually impressive book, and certainly does just to the rather photogrnic F-15 Eagle... In the case ofF-15 Eagle Engaged, each author's unique abilities and backgrounds have come together to ensure that both asepcts are properly chronicled. Fortunately for us, this has resulted in this splendid book." -Logbook "This background reference volume in oversized landscape format is written by a team comprising an aviation journalist and a U.S. Air Force pilot with extensive experience flying theF-15. Given the relaxation of security with the airframe's advancing age, many previously unknown details are brought to light... A library with collection interests in modern military aviation will find this title worth considering." -John Howard Oxley,America Reference Books Annual(March 2008) "Military collections and general-interest holdings strong in aviation will relish the visual treat of Steve Davies and Doug Dildy'sF-15 Eagle Engaged: The World's Most Successful Jet Fighter,in which a USAF Colonel and a leading aviation journalist write the most eye-catching, detailed book in print on the F-15 Eagle fighter." -The California Bookwatch(January 2008) "...this is the finest book on the light-grey Eagle bar none.

One that I know you will be browsing through time and time again." -Scott Van Aken,modelingmadness.com(October 2007) "A USAF Colonel and a leading aviation journalist combine inF-15 Eagle Engagedto pen the most comprehensive book ever publishing on the F-15 Eagle.
