‘SLUF’ STUDY: SCHIFFER’S NEW A-7 CORSAIR II BOOK
Whether you're a diehard fan of the A-7 Corsair II, or a novice with the type, Schiffer's new hardback offers a wealth of reference.
Book Review: Schiffer's Sherman Tank Guide Vol.6
In what appears to be its final Legends of Warfare book devoted to the M4 Sherman (five preceding publications have tackled various sub-types), Schiffer has opted to examine recovery vehicles – sometimes known as wreckers – based on the tank.
FIVE-BANK TANK
Schiffer’s approach to the Sherman tank has been to dedicate several volumes to the type, each focusing on a different sub-type, which allows for a detailed study of each of the M4 variants.
RAISING HAVOC
Schiffer Military’s Legends of Warfare series are ideal references for those wanting an introduction to a subject, with the A-20 Havoc volume being a perfect example.
FOURTH BOOK, FORD’S UP
As one of the most widely built World War Two tanks and a popular military modelling subject, references for the M4 Sherman are always welcome.
THE FORTRESS REVISITED
Schiffer Publishing's second hardback study of the Boeing B-17 offers great value and plentiful detail.
LONG-LIVED BATTLECRUISERS
While many pre-World War One dreadnoughts were upgraded significantly in the inter-war period, few were changed as much as the four Japanese Kongō-class battlecruisers (Kongō, Hiei, Kirishima and Haruna), which were reconstructed extensively.
TANK GENERALS
Schiffer Military’s ode to the M3 Lee and Grant tanks (named after two American Civil War generals) makes for a fascinating read, covering not just the type’s development and service, but also highlighting the constraints in its design and explains how the M3’s intended form with its turreted main armament evolved into the M4 Sherman.
'VARK PHOTO STUDY
Schiffer Publishing's Legends of Warfare series turns its attention to that most famous swing-wing aircraft, the general Dynamics F-111. It's a handy reference, especially as Hobby 2000 has recently re-released Hasegewa's 1/72 kits. Check out our review here...
'SANDY' STUDY
Schiffer Military’s Legends of Warfare series is providing aviation enthusiasts and modellers with a refreshing appraisal of many classic designs, with this volume on the Douglas A-1 Skyraider being an ideal example.
