The history of the Boeing Company is told by using short articles, cutaways, specification tables and many color/black-and-white photos. Boeing aircraft are covered from the 1920s F4B-4 biplane to the WWII B-17/B-29 to the postwar B-47/377/B-52 to modern 700 series jets and more.

From jet interceptors recently retired from military service to World War I bi-planes, Jane's Historic Military Aircraft Recognition Guide is a complete directory of over 200 military aircraft preserved today. For each aircraft, there is a full page color photo as well as descriptive text and a specification table.
