Aircraft of World War II is a fascinating and informative guide to many aircrafts. Its information-packed pages cover a broad range of aircraft, from outmoded biplanes such as the Gloster Gladiator, pressed into service in the desperate defense against Nazi Germany in 1939 and 1940, through the classic fighter aircraft such as the Supermarine Spitfire, Messerschmitt Bf 109, and North American P-51 Mustang, to early jets such as the Arado Ar 234, Messerschmitt Me 262, and Glster Meteor.
