Overall Impression

This book is a treasure trove of very good models. Although many of them appeared in other sources, lots of these sources are quite elusive themselves.

The diagrams are of excellent quality, and each model is accompanied by a good Black & White photo, and the section at the beginning has full color photos of all the models.
