INSCRIBED by author Paul Yee on title page. 1st Edition.

A history of the aircraft developed at Groom Lake, America's secret aviation base. From the d.j.: "In 'Area 51 Black Jets', critically acclaimed military and aviation historian Bill Yenne offers the first fully illustrated history of Area 51, the military base in the Nevada desert, and its most famous aircraft projects--including the CIA's Aquatone program, which gave us Lockheed's U-2 and the Oxcart program, which gave birth to the Lockheed A-12 Archangel and ultimately the SR-71 Blackbird.
During its early, top-secret years, the famous F-117 Nighthawk stealth fighter flew in the skies over Area 51. So, too, did the strange and still-mysterious Tacit Blue and Bird of Prey. Each project is given its own fascinating chapter illuminating the aircraft's development at this famed location."

From the d.j. flap: "The author has preserved oral histories related by twenty-four members of Vancouver's West Point Grey Branch 142 of the Royal Canadian Legion. These tales of conflict occur in both world wars, as twelve veterans of each share their experiences, having participated in the wars at various ranks from private to general. The author provides brief histories of each war, interwoven in the servicemen's accounts. Helpful maps are included."
Very Good+ book with VG d.j. with photos. Small piece missing from front top corner of d.j. Some Blue colour from the book binding has been transferred to the inside of the d.j. (erasable). Name and address stickers of a previous owner stuck on endpapers.
