5 out of 5 stars Amazing book !   January 17, 2008
An excellent surprise :
Wide choice of photographs. Some rarely or never seen before, such as a "sharkmouthed" F-4F Wildcat.
Mostly bombers nose arts (huge variety of B-24 Liberators), but some fighters or transports also.
A few oldies from WW1, and others from Korea and Vietnam.



5 out of 5 stars Excellent look at Noseart   October 15, 2007

This is an excellent look at noseart. Some of the noseart is a bit "racy", but nothing out of the ordinary, considering the context of the times. The expressions of healthy, often lonely young men at war, many who did not return from their missions over enemy territory. Hopefully the author will produce another volume.

The book is historically accurate and extensively researched. There is no R-rated material in the book. The artwork on the planes reflects young men at war, who lived like there was no tomorrow. For a number of them, there was no tomorrow. Buy the book.

The artwork should have been rated R for adult. I bought it for a gift and when I received it, it was too racy to give.
