A new book in my library.

Just came across this one, cheap and cheerful....why the not!

Probably as rare as rocking horse droppings - I hope so anyway at the price. Front and rear covers torn off but otherwise in quite good condition. Page size 225 x 145mm

Wait a couple of weeks and I will scan and post

My last one. The only one that had arrived from an expending spree of 9 books.

I think I'm going though some kind of oriental phase. 6 of the 9 are about japanese and chinese issues.

a so...

Love these books. Never really how interesting this plane was.

 

[MiTasol]

I liked the aircraft but I hated those internally sprung wheels.

As promised. I tried doing it as a booklet but that is not suitable for viewing. Centrespread is done as one page.
I am hoping to add a first addition to my collection as well. The claim near the end of no labour problems is not strictly accurate as there were serious problems with one or more apprentices in the Gun Turret Annex.

These two arrived. Should be a couple of interesting books. The one on the left is about a pilot of a B-25 Mitchell that flew 72 missions against the Axis during WWII. The other one is about a 12th Airforce Crew Chief during WWII for the 321st Bomb Group flying B-25 Mitchells in North Africa, Italy, Sicily and Southern France.

Great find! This "Front and rear covers torn off but otherwise in quite good condition" Reminds one of "Lost dog, 3 legs blind In one eye answers to the name Lucky."

Well Wayne finally got my copy of the South Pacific, guessing you have yours's read. Looks to be another great read. The second book is on another on the B-25 and a man who completed 31 missions over the Med during WWII.

A rude comment by my wife, instigated by the arrival in the mail of a new flyer from Hamilton books, caused me to think. Her comment was "Always buying books." Now, I realised I had not bought an aviation book in over a year. Besides, It's my money. We have our own incomes and hers is much more than mine. So, I immediately ordered some of the reduced books I have wanted. They came today and for only $136 US.
