Over 700 airlines illustrated, with a brief history, list of their current fleet, and an explanation of brand identity Jane's Airline Recognition Guide is the first in the series to use illustrations rather than photographs. As with all the Jane's titles, the quality, authority and accuracy associated with the Jane's name is guaranteed. Organised alphabetically, Gunter Endres' text gives a brief introduction and history of over 700 airlines, as well as details of their current fleets, and some explanation of the brand message contained in each livery. Graham Edwards' illustrations are immaculate in every detail of design and colour, and the aircraft chosen to represent every airline form part of their current fleet. This book is the ideal companion to Jane's Aircraft Recognition Guide -- perfect for any aviation enthusiast who wishes to study airlines at airports or at home.

A stunning visual account of the greatest conflict in world history.
The Second World War is the largest event in the history of mankind. No populated continent was untouched by its operations, and the political structure of the postwar world has been largely determined by its outcome. The global nature of the war, and the ambitions of the belligerents, meant that it was fought on a scale that, even today, confounds the imagination. It was a stimulus to unparalleled economic activity and provoked the most important clash of ideologies experienced by the world since the Crusades.
The Collins Atlas of World War II furthers our understanding of the war that forever changed our world. The scale and scope of the war is examined here in graphic form, with maps that trace the military campaigns as well as the social and political developments. Authoritative text addresses the issues and events leading to war and all of the clashes and challenges during wartime.
<ul>
<li>More than 125 full-color maps, diagrams, and timelines</li>
<li>Edited by acclaimed military historian John Keegan</li>
<li>Comprehensive coverage of the prewar world and the world at war</li>
<li>Examination of military plans and key battles</li>
<li>Internet links for further research</li>
<li>Glossary and Index </li>
</ul>
