Michael O'Leary's postwar P-51 Mustangs

Arguably one of the best P-51 Mustang photobooks around at this moment, this 128-page book is crammed with good to very good colour photograps of surviving P-51 Mustangs. You will find most variants depicted here, such as an P-51A, an A-36, a P-51B (The look-a-like of the famous 'Shangri La' of Don Gentile), P-51Ds, a P-51H to the Cavalier Mk2s. Even the Piper Enforcer gets its share.The only things missing for me, comparing this book to 'Spitfire, Flying Legend' or 'Hurricane, a Fighter Legend' from the same publisher, were some more background information and WW2 colour photographs of the Mustang and photographs of Mustangs operating in the Korean War.
