About This Item
London: Putnam. Fine in Fine dust jacket. 1981. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. 0370300505 . Fine blue cloth hardcover with a fine unclipped dustjacket. No inscriptions or marks, an excellent copy. "Of all the British aircraft constructors during the First World War, the Sopwith Aviation Co. Was the one most highly renowned for its fighters - the most famous being the 1&1/2 Strutter, Pup, Triplane, Camel, Dolphin and Snipe. All types and all classes of Sopwith aircraft, and not merely the fighters of the First World War, find their places in this book; and thus the volume serves not merely as a record of technical achievement but as a means of placing in perspective - and sometimes surprisingly in prominence - the less familiar designs that were realised under the leadership of Thomas Sopwith. "; Black & white photographs and drawings; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 322 pages .
