The P-40 "Tomahawk" initially went into service with Army Co-Operation squadrons but was almost immediately replaced by the superior Mustang. These "spare" Tomahawks were then sent out to North Africa to back up the Hurricanes, and when the first Kittyhawks arrived, they were also "sidelined" to the desert. It is here that the Kittyhawk made its name and it will be forever associated with the 112 Squadron shark mouthed examples that fought the Me 109Fs all over North Africa. With North Africa secured, later Kittyhawks carried on fighting through Italy, this time more in a ground support role and carrying a fairly decent bomb load.
In this book the author tried to cover all the various Mks and to guide the reader through the differences to look out for. If by the end of it, he can tell the difference between a Tomahawk Mk IIA and IIB and a Kittyhawk Mk III and IIIA then he is indeed blessed and the authors work may not have been in vain.
