pp. 191, black and white photographs throughout. Book in vg condition, slight shelfwear only. “This is the first exclusively Canadian collection of Second World War aircraft nose art. The pictures in this book, almost 700 of them, speak for themselves. They provide an astonishing portrait of the spirit shown by the pilots, the flightcrews and the groundcrews who supported them. They serve as a bridge across time, back to the psyche and emotions of the Canadians at war. A special color section features photographs of actual nose art panels cut from aircraft after the war, now housed at the Canadian War Museum.”
