Michael Turner's paintings have been universally praised for their combination of technical accuracy with unrivalled attention to mood and detail. In this collection of more than one hundred of his works, he has covered the entire history of the Service from the early wood-boned wire-braced biplanes, through the metal monoplanes of the Second World War such as the Supermarine Spitfire, the Avro Lancaster and the Hawker Tempest, to the supersonic jets of the present. As well as the famous, he has included the less successful designs, the training aircraft, and the transport planes; and complementing these illustrations are a series of drawings illustrating aspects of life on the airfields, and the operations of the RAF at peace and at war throughout its history. Together the artistry of Michael Turner and the many accounts of RAF personnel of past and present make this a unique and fascinating record of the development of the Royal Air Force, of interest to air historians, members of the RAF and laymen alike.
