ReviewsDozens of beautiful color plates - profiles, plan views and insets - tincture text. Dozens more rare, previously unpublished aircraft photos - many from private collections - augment artwork. And all come backed by brilliantly researched, thoroughly annotated manuscript... Text comes packed with fascinating facts. The segue on international talismans and mascots, for instance, proved surprisingly spellbinding... Robustly recommended!, ...provides a fine history of the development of the Imperial Russian Air Force, as told in original Russian documents and personal accounts not often (if ever before) seen in the West...
