Scimitar by Richard A Franks
Renowned aviation author Richard A. Franks presents a detailed and fully illustrated account of the Supermarine Scimitar in service, from the precursors and prototypes to the three surviving examples. It includes 40 specially commissioned and highly accurate colour illustrations, as well as more than 120 black and white and colour photographs. A listing of airframes and histories is also included.
After completing his service in the Marine Corps, Richard Franks became a state court judge in Missouri and then sought a congressional seat in 1974, narrowly losing to the incumbent. After a brief stint practicing law, he became a general counsel for a local construction company in Springfield, MO, eventually working for a variety of national and international concerns as both a project manager and legal counsel on projects across the US, North Africa, and Europe. He now practices law in Denver and lives on a horse property on the eastern plains outside Denver with his domestic partner, Betsy Hook, and their animals, all of which are adoptions.
