"The 1919-39 period is noteworthy not only for the products of some of the first manufacturers to specialize in bombing aircraft - Breguet, Farman, Handley Page - but for the emergence of notable newcomers to this aspect of military aviation. Among the latter are companies bearing the names of such celebrated American pioneers as Boeing, Curtiss, Douglas and Martin; others from such countries as Japan, Czzechoslovakia and Poland, whose aircraft industries began to flourish after 1918; and, inevitably, representatives of Hitler's Luftwaffe, the rapid growth of which in the latter part of the 1930s set the rest of the world rearming and provided the final pre-war spur that rendered the ponderous biplanes of earlier years obsolete." - excerpt from the inner front jacket flap. ABOUT THE AUTHOR and PRINCIPAL ARTIST: Kenneth Munson, who specialized form may years in the study of military aircraft, is the author of many aviation books. The principal artist John Wood, who works with the British Interplanetary SOciety, has illustrated many of the standard works on aircraft." - from the inner front jacket flap.
