P-36 Hawk Aces of World War 2 (Aircraft of the Aces) (2009)


Number 86 in Osprey’s series ‘Aircraft of the Aces’ is written by Lionel Persyn, Kari Stenman and Andrew Thomas. The latter two is among my favourite writers while Persyn is new to me. The book is written in the typical Osprey style. The book covers the operational use of the P-36 in France, Finland, the UK, South Africa, and the US. The P-36 is not well-published and since I’ve previously mostly focused on the P-36 use in Finland much of the info is new to me. If you like the books in this series, this one is a nice addition.

Rating 4/5

The book is available from http://www.amazon.co.uk/P-36-Hawk-Aces-World-Aircraft/dp/1846034094/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1239216403&sr=8-1
