FOAD, E. V. PURPOSE-MADE JOINERY 317 PGS., SOFTBOUND 7 1/4 X 9 1/2 | |
|
In recent years, a considerable amount of joinery for building work has, mainly for economy reasons, been chosen from a limited range of mass-produced "standard joinery". This limits the individual design not only in the joinery itself, but in the building fabric that surrounds it. As a result, demand has been increasing for "purpose-made" joinery to satisfy individual tastes or design needs in new building work, as well as in building restoration and refurbishment. This type of joinery still employs many of the traditional craft principles and skills. This book reflects these skills while at the same time considering how the craftsman can take full advantage of modern materials, equipment, and techniques. It deals in detail with windows, doors and frames, wall panelling, and much more. Each chapter also includes several joinery projects to link theory to workshop practice. This compressive guide is written in easy-to-understand language and features a wealth of helpful and detailed illustrations. This book will be essential to any woodworker, or anyone interested in the art of purpose-made joinery. Price: $0.00 |

The Men and Machines of No.15/XV Squadron Royal Flying Corps/Royal Air ForceOxford's Own is the story of No.15/XV Squadron, Royal Flying Corps/Royal Air Force, of the men who served with it and the aircraft it flew. It is a story of determination, courage, fortitude and life. The life of a Squadron at war and play, embroidered together with the lives of hundreds of young men from varying backgrounds and the four quarters of the Globe. The story begins with the formation of No.15 Squadron, Royal Flying Corps, on the 1st March 1915, at South Farnborough, Hampshire and follows the fates and fortunes of the men and machines who served during the Great War, between December 1915 and December 1919. Reformed in March 1924, the Squadron provided valuable service as part of the Aeroplane and Armament Experimental Establishment, for over ten years. Declared a day bomber Squadron in June 1934, No.15 adopted the use of the Roman numerals XV, which are today still carried on its aircraft. In April 1939, the Squadron was adopted by the city of Oxford and was unofficially known as "Oxford's 'Own'". The Second World War brought major expansion and changes in equipment. Battles, Wellingtons, Stirlings and Lancasters all saw service with No.XV Squadron. The post World War II era led to the Squadron being equipped with Avro Lincoln bombers, followed in succession by American built B-29s, known to the RAF as the Washington bomber. The jet age brought in turn the Canberra, Victor, Buccaneer and Panavia Tornado. Complete with seventeen appendices and illustrated with nearly 800 black and white and colour photographs from the Squadron's own albums, the Mildenhall Register, the author's collection and many private sources.

The enigmatic science of military intelligence is examined in this personal record, written by Brig.Gen. Oscar W. Koch, who served during World War II as chief of intelligence for General George S. Patton, Jr., one of the most colorful military leaders in American history.

His story moves from the African campaign through Sicily, into France on D-Day and on to the Battle of the Bulge, pointing out how the work of the intelligence staff made the differences in the final reckoning. General Kochs book is more than a historical study, however. It is the exciting story of the operations behind the cloak and dagger illusions. Price: $14.95 |

The end of the Cold War created a golden opportunity for reducing the defense burden and providing taxpayers with a "Peace Dividend." For the United States Air Force, this resulted over the past six years in drastic reductions: 23% in aircraft inventory, 30% in personnel, and 32% in the number of bases and other major installations. Well-known and long-serving aircraft, such as the A-7D/K, the B-52G, the F-4C/D/E, the F-111A/D, the FB-111A and the SR-71, have been withdrawn from active and reserve components, and some states, such as California, have lost nearly half of their Air Force bases.Illustrated with over 410 color photos, this new book provides a rich pictorial record of aircraft (including old and new markings) and units which no longer exist, and offers a visual chronicle of organizational changes between 1988-1995.
