The continuation of World War II's most intriguing new aviation series. In Hidden Warbirds II; the engaging follow-up to the critically acclaimed Hidden Warbirds; aviation historian Nicholas A. Veronico further explores the romantic era of World War II warbirds and the stories of some of its most famous wrecks and recoveries. The long-lost aircraft featured in this much-anticipated sequel include a Hawker Tempest being restored in Texas; the sole surviving Brewster F3A Corsair; rescued from a swamp; and a Junkers 88 recovered from the icy waters of Norway.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A simplistic introduction to the Druze faithBy A CustomerThe writings on the Druze faith are overwhemingly either distorted or incorrect. In addition to that; there are very few books written on the Druze faith.This book shed some light on the spirit of the birth of the Druze faith; and its main architect; Hamza. It touches on some of its general concepts and traditions.However; this book is not to be taken as a reference; since it comes out at the end in the form of a story or even "tale". The language is also poor at best.The 4 stars are there to recommend one of the few books on the Druze faith that does not contain gross fallacies.
