Internationally known graphic artist Carlo Demand has rendered the planes for coloring in any medium, with captions describing each craft's design, history, and original colouring scheme (shown in full colour for 14 planes on the covers). Colour the Red Baron's Fokker Triplane, Rickenbacker's Nieuport, the Sopwith Camel, Spad S. XIII, German Albatros, American Curtis \"Jenny,\" and 37 other accurately drawn airplanes in this vivid survey of the birth of military aeronautics.
