Jim, the book is more a collection of anecdotal accounts, plus some chapters on development and operational use etc. The photo content, although by no means sparse, is less than I'd anticipated (in a 220 page book) from the advertising 'write up', and the quality of reproduction, in some, is rather 'thin' - a fault of the printing process and reproduction, not of the original photos - with the majority appearing to be personal 'snap shots' of the period, showing crews and individuals.
However, a (very) brief 'flip through' the chapters hints that the content might make interesting reading, especially as the Stirling has little coverage elsewhere.
Being by the same author as 'Stirling at War', I had presumed, wrongly, that there would have been more photo coverage of the aircraft itself, but in brand new condition, and at the price I paid for the book, I can't complain.
