A private venture aircraft, the much-loved Mosquito was  possibly the most versatile of all World War II aircraft  Revolutionary in its wood construction, the de Havilland Mosquito played a vital  role in the war combining the manoeuvrability of a fighter with the payload of  a medium bomber. It contributed to the war as a fighter, an unarmed bomber, a  reconnaissance aircraft and its different versions included the Sea Mosquito, the  first British twin-engined aircraft to land on an aircraft carrier.  In this volume, Stuart Howe, lifelong Mosquito enthusiast and former Director of  the thriving Mosquito Aircraft museum at Salisbury Hall, traces the fascinating  development of the lvlosquito from its first flight in November 1940 through to its  production and many variants. He also outlines the l\“Iosquit0’s varied uses in post-  war days in roles ranging from oil prospecting and air racing to aerial survey.  Containing a superb collection of rare colour photographs, de Havilland ll/Mosquito  An Il[u.s'trated History I/blame I and its companion volume de Havilland Mosquito An  Illustrated History I/blume 2 by Ian Thirsk (ISBN 0859791 l57) form an indispensable  l,OO0 picture archive for any l\{mosquito modeller, historian or enthusiast.
