And here's a web site that details the book's contents and offers a lot more to those interested in aviation in the Far East.

I had this book ordered, and was so looking forward to it, but a friend who purchased it, told me it was soft bound, had PERFECT BINDING (anything but), and rather poor paper...
To any budding military publisher, look at "The Thirsty 13th" (S.P. Washburne) for perfection in producing an aviation book...
After going to the trouble of researching and collecting the information, why put it into a lucky bag.
I cancelled the book........

I agree that for a book this expensive soft covers and "perfect binding" are totally unacceptable as such a book simply is not durable, even if one treats it with silk gloves.
