Reviews

[Robert Hepple · Rating 4 out of 5]

Published in 1992, 'B-52 Stratofortress in action' is number 130 in the popular series of aviation booklets by publishers Squadron/Signal. As usual, this volume gives a potted history of the type, amply supported by excellent photos and some colour artwork profiles, and replaces the earlier publication number 23 on the same subject way back in 1975. Superb.

[Randall Cook · Rating 4 out of 5]

Pretty thorough, un-classified look at B-52 combat usage, and aircraft improvements over its service-lifespan.
