There were no books about the AVRO Lancaster who packed more information in 96 pages for so little money when this one came out in 1979. The first in this joined PSL/Airfix series not to serve as elaborate background material for one of the later company's 1:24 kits, it still has a nice modelling section, describing e.g. how to convert your Lancaster into a Lancastrian or a York. The cover of this book is a colour photograph, not as with the previous five books the same painting as on the Airfix modelbox, an easy distinction. Later books in this series (Mosquito, B-17) were even more like common aviation books in outward appearance, though they all shared the same format. It is a shame that such a good serie has come to an end.
Funny thing is that a likewise and very recent series by SAM publications starts with the same aircraft as this series. The SAM series can serve as a very good replacement if you can't find the old PSL/Airfix books, as they store an even bigger amount of information within their pages.

Wonderful review of the Lancaster's use in the war.Covers not only the plane but also describes in some detail ground crew and air crew experiences. The b&w photos fill the pages of the book and are of the very best quality. Not much detail on the Lancaster systems but well worth a look!

LANCASTER BRIDES is an inspiring anthology of four very good, excellent, in fact, complete novels about love and faith in the Lancaster, Pennsylvania Amish community. Author Wanda Brunstetter has researched her sources well and writes in a wonderful clear presentation. I couldn't put this book down and I'm sorry it's over! I usually send these Barbour inspirational romances to my sister and sister-in-law so they can enjoy them as well, but I have a feeling I might have to hang on to this one! These stories are, in fact, beloved, and I highly recommend LANCASTER BRIDES for all women, teenagers to senior citizens! It's a terrific ride with many basic insights into the Old Amish ways. It's also full of romance and faith. All in all, a good setting for these fine stories.

Louis Stotzfus was also involved in putting together a A Quilter's Cookbook which is equally as good as this one. I bought the Quilter's cookbook first and was so impressed that when I found out about the Lancaster County Cookbook I had to have it in my library at once. This purchase is for a friend. The recipes in both books use what most people have in their kitchen on a weekly basis and the family loves them. Each have their own favorite. The Chocolate Bash is to die for!! This book is like having a 1000 grandma's bring their best recipe to your pot luck! Roxane Hepker, Milton, WA

I was raised in Lancaster County, but I have not lived there regularly in over thirty years, but I do enjoy visiting family and old friends. I bought this book to keep current with a wider set of recommendations. I am very impressed with the large number of listings, the accuracy of those I know, and the number of hard to find establishments included, and, especially, the list of purveyors of homegrown, healthy foods in small towns and the countryside I want to try. This is the best book of its kind I have seen.

What can I say, awesome, captivating, fantastic. We owe a debt to Jack Currie for recording this terrifying part of history. We also owe a debt to Goodall publishing and Airdata for still printing it !....

I think it was really exciting and in fact I got chills down my spine just as Maddie did as a white face appeared in her window!

This book was excellent. I was interested in finding more out about England during the 15th century, and this was the prefect book to come to. It is a nice, thorough overview of the time period, in a language that's both entertaining and understandable.

I must admit that I read the first edition over 10 years ago. The impression I got was enough to change my entire political beliefs. This book studies the real effect of taxation on the people in any country. The question of why governments fail have always puzzled political scientist. Prof. Parkinson takes a historical/politic/financial look at this question. This book is not presented in a 'techincal' format but rather in a clear a-b-c prose veiw of what is important.
