A lavish work, the fruit of meticulous research, illustrated with numerous previously unpublished photographs that will make you an authority on a little-known subject. The Amiot 143, Bloch 200 and Farman 223 will hold no secrets thanks to concise, instructive texts combining technical detail and history. A reference study covering all the aircraft used in last-ditch — and sometimes suicidal — missions aimed at halting the German steamroller in May 1940. A landmark work that will prove indispensable for any aviation enthusiast, or more broadly, for anyone fascinated by the Second World War!
