Review: "Given that there must be a finite limit to the number of photographs surviving, even in private collections, this is an excellent source of pictorial and other information for model makers. Mr Atterbury knows his subject well and is an excellent communicator; I now have 3 of his books and all are good resources as well as enjoyable reading."
