BURKHARD'S BOMBERS!
WITH the outer covers featuring dramatic art by Brian Knight and Harry Woodman, this 1994 60 page monograph by PM Grosz remains the best illustrated history of the WWI German Gotha bombers yet published. Over 85 rare archive images, 20 pages of 1:72 and 1:48 scale detailed drawings of the G.II; G.III; G.IV; G.V and G.Vb variants and contemporary wartime component sketches, this is essential reference for anyone building available Gotha model kits. Close ups of armament and ordnance are supported by detailed camouflage and markings text plus referenced captions for the 13 colour profile subjects and the monograph is topped off with model kit reviews and detailed appendices. This original first edition is in very good order with virtually zero creases anywhere.
AN excellent survey of the German G.II-G.Va Gotha bomber series written by an acknowledged expert in the field, Peter Martin Grosz, with over 85 rare archive photos from his unrivalled collection. All main variants of the 1916-1917 Gothas are deeply explored in this 1994 first edition, with 20 pages of detailed 1:72 and 1:48 scale drawings [including a double page fold-out] of each type being presented by Ian Stair. This comprehensive 64 page monograph also includes colour and markings data, a model kit listing up to date of publication (October 1994) and four pages of highly original, and carefully researched, colour profiles; scrap views and uppersurface plan-forms by series editor Ray Rimell. With detailed appendices and full reproduction of a 1918 capture report-including over three dozen sketches-on G.V 979/17 'FST' shot down in May 1918,this is the best all-round reference for the enigmatic Gotha bombers ever published. We have just the one copy available and it's in very good condition.
