P-61 Black Widow : Northrop Night Fighter in WWII: Legends of Warfare hardcover
The complete history of the P-61 "Black Widow," one of the most advanced and most sinister-looking fighter aircraft of the Second World War.

Designed by Jack Northrop and Vladimir Pavlecka, the P-61's menacing appearance was matched by the plane's advanced technology and fearsome weaponry. Interestingly, the Widow is credited with the final aerial kill of the war.
