Roffe, Michael; Hadler, Terry; Chappell, Mike (illustrator). (Subject: Osprey: Men-at-Arms) During the Falklands conflict, aircraft (both fixed and rotary-wing) were of crucial importance to both sides: in moving reinforcements quickly across the sea and over the islands, in attacking surface vessels, and in providing protection against attacks from both above and below the waves. The role of air power was thus to assist friendly surface forces in theirs. Consequently, the air arms of the two antagonists functioned in what was essentially a supporting role, but nevertheless a vital one.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. Zhang, Nancy (illustrator). First Edition thus; Reprint. 48 pp. Quarto [28.6 cm]. Illustrated wraps over boards. From the publisher: "This picture book biography is the story of "Ruthless Ruthie," a warrior for equality, a tireless defender of justice, and an inspiring trailblazer for girls everywhere. Ruth Bader Ginsburg may have been one of the most respected women in the United States, but her recognition is nothing short of hard-won. For years before becoming a justice of the Supreme Court, Ruth had to fight the notion that being female meant that she was less smart, less qualified, and less worthy of attention than her male counterparts. Throughout college, law school, and her work life, she faced discrimination-because she was a woman. But it was in her fight for equality as a lawyer that she made an imprint on American history, by changing the way the law dealt with women's rights and by showing people that unfairness to women wasn't just a female problem-that it negatively affected men and children, too. This picture book biography of Ruth Bader Ginsburg is a strong choice for the classroom and for sharing at home.".

Add to basketLaurier, Jim (illustrator). (Subject: Osprey Aviation) Formed shortly after the outbreak of World War II, and equipped with Messerschmitt Bf 109Es, JG 1 defended Germany's North Sea and Baltic coastal areas and its main port cities and naval bases. After 1942 it fought against the US Eighth Air Force's B-17s and B-24s, and bore the brunt of action against increasingly regular, fighter escorted deep penetration USAAF day bomber raids. Levels of attrition grew, but so did experience of the unit's leading aces, including Herbert Ihlefeld, Heinz Bar and Walter Oesau, piloting Bf 109Es, Fw 190s and Heinkel 162 jet fighters. Packed with photographs and profile artwork, this is the compelling story of the pilots who defended Germany.

Add to basketPostlethwaite, Mark (illustrator). (Subject: Osprey Aviation) This second Naval Aces of World War 1 book looks at the many flying naval heroes who served alongside or against those of the Royal Naval Air Service (RNAS). While the RNAS operated its own formidable arsenal of Nieuport and Sopwith scouts over the Flanders coast, the German Navy countered with its own Land Feld Jagdstaffeln and Seefront Staffeln. Unique to World War 1 was the use of flying boats as fighters in combat. The best flying boat fighter was Italy's Macchi M 5, flown by three aces and also the mount of Charles H Hammann, the first American to earn the Medal of Honor in aerial combat.

These illustrations undoubtedly established Beardsley's reputation, accounting for a large proportion of his total output, for he died tragically young at the age of 25. This book is one of the early masterpieces of English prose writing, and celebrates the chivalry and romance associated with medieval times, and the court of King Arthur. The combination of classic literature and remarkable illustration make this a unique book that will appeal as much to the art-collector as to the book-lover.
