As its title implies the book is about Colonial Spitfire
pilots. So it is not limited to Pacific theatre but all
theatres of war where Spitfire served. The book brings us
the memories and feats of eight New Zealander and four
Australian Spitfire pilots. There are 9 color profiles of
Spitfires, nearly 60 bw photosof Spitfires in three
continents, a neat three view detailed drawing of
Spitfire Vc Trop, and profile drawings of F MKVIII and FR
MkXIV. Interesting subject for a well established
aircraft like Spitfire.
