Setting Suns I-III: Captured And Wrecked Japanese Aircraft In WWII (2007-11) By Tom Laemlen
 
These books depict captured or wrecked Japanese aircraft. Each page includes brief captions, and the photos are reproduced at superb quality, as either full-page photographs or half-or quarter-page views. These large-sized photos make the book an excellent reference. It covers equally Navy and Army aircraft.
 
Each section is divided with the Allied recognition card for each aircraft type: Zeke, Frank, Oscar and so forth. Geographically, photos span the entire Pacific war, including the Solomons, New Guinea, Philippines, Marianas, Okinawa and some selections from CBI. The photographs are of excellent quality and resolution, scanned from the National Archives and private collections.
This book includes more Japanese new photographs and other collections. The majority of photos will be "new" to any reader, or alternate views of known wrecks. Author Laemiein has discovered rare additional photos of known wrecks that I have never seen before, a testament to his still researching at the National Archives.
