Michael Nelmes chronicles the stories behind these remarkable machines, tracing their journeys from active combat and service to their hallowed place in one of Australia's most beloved national institutions, presenting a rich tapestry of aviation and military history that spans the major conflicts of the 20th century.\n\nBeyond the nuts and bolts of aeronautical detail, this volume stands as a testament to the courage of the men and women who flew and maintained these aircraft in the service of Australia. Nelmes writes with an authority born of deep research, weaving together technical precision and human narrative to illustrate just how profoundly these aircraft shaped the nation's military identity.
