Summary: Best Aviation Photography Ever!!!!
Wonderful tribute to the late George Hall. Stunning photography by George and the world's best Tomcat photographers. I love the dedication to Stout.
Summary: Great book--a must have for F-14 fans
This book is replete with terrific photographic images of the F-14 with memorable recountings of personal experiences from those who were closely affiliated with the program. It's an interesting way to document the F-14's incredible history of service in the US Navy, and the personal touch adds a powerful dimension that would be lost in a purely historical recollection of the exploits this fabulous aircraft. There is no aircraft in the world in the past, present or on the drawing boards that matches the flexibility and performance of the F-14 Tomcat.
Summary: The Tomcat in pictures and the words of those who flew it
This is a tremedous piece of work on what was probably the Navy's most iconic aircraft of the post-Vietnam period. Parsons and Hall found an incredible array of pictures from a variety of names that anyone who follows carrier aircraft will recognize- Lawson, Twomey, Heatley, Potts and Carlson, just to name a few. They matched the photography with comments and insights from the aviators that flew the type through the Tomcat's long and distinguished history. What you read includes the high points as well as the warts and a lot of "insider info" you won't find anywhere else. This isn't a nuts-and-bolts, detail freak kind of book- but will certainly, in the long run, remain one of the best efforts on the type produced.

Summary: A Photographic History of the Lunar Module
This is a must have for the serious space flight history buff. Although light on text, this photographic history is rich in information about the development and preparation of the Lunar Modules produced by Grumman at Bethpage, New York. As a space flight historian, I was surprised that included in this small book were a number of photographs that I had never seen before. For something of this size it packs a great deal of space flight history into a small book. Highly recommended.
Summary: Fantastic Look Back at 1960's Technology
A terrific book about the 1960's NASA technology used to build and fly the Lunar Module to the moon. This book conveys the pride of the workers and company that built these wonderful and unique vehicles. Great mix of photos and text. I have many space books but still learned new things from this book. Highly recommended.
Summary: Moonships
I liked this book. It had a lot of pictures I've never seen before and went into the places at Grumman that you never see in other places.

Summary: I would buy it only if ...
February 26/2006. For the last 7 years the Tomcat has served and excelled in different roles and big conflicts have been present in all this time. And now the Tomcat's service in the Navy is almost over. A couple of cruises I guess and that's it. Now is the perfect time to update this book. Then it would be like a Tomcat Bible.
Summary: Excellent book
There is not too much to read in the F-14 book, as it
is a "F-14 Roll Call" type book. This means it has a
photo of each and every F-14 ever made, and the final
disposition of each aircraft. If the aircraft was in
any special operations, that is mentioned also. For
photos, specific aircraft markingins, squadron
markings and F-14 history I thought the book was very
well done and excellent!

Summary: Impressive...most impressive
For those who fly, maintain, or just admire the F-14, this definitely deserves a place on your bookshelf. Filled with over 700 photos of Tomcats, including the bureau numbers of said planes, this is without a doubt the "year book" of the F-14. I only wish this book receives an update with even more photos of the remaining Tomcats in our inventory and where they stand today (book was printed in 1998).

Including information such as the planes that appeared in Hollywood films, squadron tail markings, as well as patches, you will not find a more complete reference title anywhere on the market. It is a bit pricey, but well worth the money.
