About the Author
Editorial Reviews
“Sturtivant is well known to World War aviation enthusiasts…. In British Naval Aviation: The Fleet Air Arm, 1917-1990, he devotes his resources to a broader study area – all the way to the brief Falkland Islands conflict in 1982 and beyond. More than a linear history of maritime military air operations, this book abounds in personal accounts and excellent photographs. It is well recommended.” —Over the Front
