Landing Craft, Infantry and Fire Support (New Vanguard, 157)

The LCI and LSM were two key landing craft used in WWII. Finally a 'ready referrence' on these two vessels. The book contained a good brief history of both types with the LCI getting most of the coverage as the most plentiful and versital. The diagrams were pretty good allowing one to become familiar with the interior of the vessels. There were some really excellent and seldom seen photographs of the LCI and LSM in action also. Thanks for filling a much-longed-for need.

My dad served on an LCI in WW2. This was an informative and entertaining look at the ship type he served on. I enjoyed the many photos as well.

Another good reference book from this author and Osprey Publishing. Dollars well spent if you are interested in detailed information on Landing Craft.

This is a good overview for one not familiar with the covered vessels. The drawings/photos actually make this booklet. The text offers very little insight into the operations and function of the differnt ships and craft. If you can find a copy used, get it. I'd think twice if paying full price.

As my uncle commanded LCI(R) 651 and it's group in the Pacific 1944-45, I'm a bit predudiced in my zeal to get this book I may have rated it a bit higher than usual; but it is obviously well researched with some great pictures. {|8<))#

Very informative, concise and detailed.

Most detailed information on a subject that has not been covered well in the past. If you are interested in this sort of info then this is the book for you. I was surprised to discover it covered the LSM but slightly disappointed that it did not cover the LCI(S).

Good, short, quick review of important group of landing ships.

Quick delivery and very informative

nicht nur für Modellbauer sehr informativ.

Very thorough coverage of all vessels of this type. I was interested in LCI (L) and read that type I was interested I was no 402 onwards.

OK

Great product, covered the subject well and in good detail. Not a good book for Royal Navy craft, more detail for US Navy research.
