This series has been of enduring interest over many years; and is still highly sought after. Apart from the obvious interest to aviation historians; many people researching family history find these books invaluable; as so many families had someone in an RAF bomber squadron; who failed to return from active service.With the interest in family history increasing all the time and with many now seeking detailed information about wartime careers of relatives; the series will continue to be used by those seeking to find out more about fathers; grandfathers and other relatives who flew with; and died in the service of Bomber Command during World War 2.

LawsonA good solid reference book about one of Americas greatest fighting Armies (The Confederate Army of Northern Virginia). If one wants to see a breakdown of the various Regiments of Infantry; Cavalry; Artillery Engineers. Then you might seriously think about getting this book.Just do not expect one of Shelby Footes or Bruce Catton's type of book. Excellent as they are. This is a reference book.5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. excellent reference bookBy promark72@hotmail.comPhillip Katchers' book is so far the best on the army of Lee. It is good to see that there is no references on the "romantic" side of Lee; but rather an objective; concise outline of him as a general; and his army. I really liked the way in which Katcher explained the different ranks in each unit. For this has been not one of my strengths. However; there are some very odd spelling errors in it. But we are only human aren't we ? The only reason that i gave it 4 stars is because i am not widely read in this kind of text. If anyone reads this; can someone tell me how i can get the periodical "AMERICAS' CIVIL WAR"? thankyou.
