Bombers. Patrol and Reconnaissance Aircraft 1914-1919 [with] Fighters. Attack and Training Aircraft Patrol and Reconnaissance Aircraft 1914-1919 [with] Attack and Training Aircraft
London: Blandford Press, 1968. Two volume set, small octavo, hardcover, 180 pp., numerous colour plates. Dust-jackets lightly rubbed, otherwise a fine set. Bombs were dropped as early as November 1911, nearly three years before the outbreak of the First World War, and hence the bomber may claim to ante-date the fighter aeroplane as a weapon of war. At any rate, while there were no true fighters in existence in August 1914, there were bombers. Item #1724
Price (AUD): $50.00
