Roll Call: THUD: A Photographic Record of the Republic F-105 Thunderchief

Rating:
Summary: The Magnificent Thud
Review: This book is indispensable to F-105 completeists. It has operational details on every Thud ever built and photos (most color) of almost all of them. (There are just a few they couldn't find a photo of, most because they were the early combat victims.)

There is a bit of general history germane to the F-105, but the clear purpose of the book is to be able to research individual aircraft. For that purpose and for the excellent photos of the 105 fleet, the book is great. If you are looking for a history book, I recommend the Jenkins or Plunkett books, but if it's color photos you want, this is a great book.
