Anderton is a tightly focused, illustrated reference that profiles the evolution, design and operational use of U.S. fighter aircraft from 1939–1945. Concentrating on individual types rather than campaigns, the 80‑page volume surveys single‑ and twin‑engine piston fighters, armament and performance, and compares design trends and combat roles—escort, interception and air‑superiority—across the European, Pacific, Mediterranean and China–Burma–India theaters, offering a clear technical perspective on how American fighters met the varied demands of WWII air combat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublished in 1982 (ISBN13 9780517374825), this large‑format (9¼ × 12¾\") illustrated hardback delivers densely packed photos and technical content—photographs, profile views, annotated diagrams and technical drawings—alongside aircraft specifications and performance data.
