About

Author traces the biplane’s evolution from fragile pioneer machines to the robust fighters, trainers, and utility aircraft that served through World War I, the interwar years, and even into the early stages of World War II.

His narrative blends historical context with clear technical explanation, showing how designers balanced lift, drag, structural strength, and maneuverability within the distinctive two wing configuration.

The book also celebrates the enduring appeal of biplanes long after their frontline roles faded.

Illustrated throughout with monochrome and colour images.
