Summary: This book belongs in the dustbin
Comment: This book falls into the category of the worst purchases I have ever made. Most of the information is 'cut and paste' accompanied by obsolete photos. Jon Lake's credibility has taken a hit as far as I am concerned with this publication.

Summary: The Great Book of Bombers:
Comment: I have been buying books published by Salamander/MotorBooks for the last twenty five years and most have been brilliant.
However this book is a real lemon and I will like asking for a refund - the reasons :
1. The book is more of a hurriedly patched up work with a mot;ey array of huge black and white photos of new bombers - I am sure a lot of colour photos were available.
2.The description of the book is real misinformation : there are hardly any cutaway drawings around 4 or 5 and certainly not 25 as described.
3.There are very few colour artworks throughout the book.
4.The technical content is very limited and descriptions very brief.
5.There is only 1 intro chapter on bombing and not as misinformed "chapters"
6.There is no elaborate description of theoretical and practical aspects as indicated.
7.The entire book could well have been done in around 200 pages , looking at the technical content.
8.There are no diagrams or technical drawings on any of aspects of bombing.
All my previous purchases from amazon.com have been great and as per the book description - my recommendation (avoid this book at all costs !) . You are better off buying another book on amazon.com- World's greatest bombers by Roger Ford or Jet Bombers By Bill Gunston .
