SHORT STIRLING MK 1/III IN RAF SERVICEby Jonathan Falconer, 80 pages, approx 120 photos and 6 colour profiles For quite a few years, Simon Parry and Mark Postlethwaite have been building up a huge library of original WWII aviation photos, partly as a hobby but mainly to help provide photos for the books that they publish. With over 30,000 now in the collection, they realised that they had more than enough to produce a series of photo books on individual aircraft types and sub-types. They set out to make the series as ideally suited to modellers and artists as possible, so large photos, using A4 landscape format, and minimal text except for extended captions. Effectively their aim is to produce a 21st Century version of the Profile Publications series of books from the 1960s, using the latest technology to reproduce their wartime photos to the highest standard possible. This series is unique in that it will be able to provide large format ORIGINAL photos up to full A4 landscape format width, which is at least 50% larger than any standard book can deliver. Combined with the specialist knowledge of a team of historians and contributors, each book should provide unbeatable and accurate references for any modelling or painting project. ”After the very positive reaction to our first Lancaster book in this series, we’re delighted to continue our RAF Bomber Command theme with this, the first of two books on the Short Stirling. For us, there was only ever one author ‘in the frame’ for this one and we’re delighted to say that Jonathan Falconer accepted the challenge and has produced a stunning tribute to this leviathan of the skies.The Stirling has come in for a lot of Flak over the years, both literally and metaphorically. Hampered by a poor service ceiling and a Dastardly and Muttley style undercarriage, it has always lived in the shadow of the more illustrious Lancaster and Halifax. However, most crews that flew the Stirling were very fond of the aircraft and although its capabilities as a bomber were never as strong as its contemporaries, it blossomed into an extremely useful glider tug and Special Duties aircraft towards the end of the war. This aspect will be covered in our second book on the aircraft.As usual in this series, we devote most of the space to high-res original wartime photos, which we examine very closely to pick out details that have been hiding in plain sight for over 70 years.” This book contains approx 120 original wartime/pre-war photos and 6 in-depth colour profiles All books are entirely in English unless noted otherwise.

I SHIP ANYWHERE ON THIS PLANET.Be assured, though I may not always have the lowest price, you will not get any cheap bookclub editions from me on ebay. I’ve been selling books for many many years and I can spot cheap bookclubs a mile away. Hand me a book and I’ll tell you straight off if it’s a bookclub edition. Sometimes it can be hard for most booksellers to know if it’s a bookclub, like university press books. They don’t normally put the price on the jacket for the publisher’s edition, but most of them do use full or partial cloth binding, whereas the bookclub edition will be simply cheap board covers. Though let’s face it, most of the publisher’s editions these days aren’t all that great in quality either, the bookclubs are even worse! Please look at my ebay store where many similar titles are available.
