Larkin's illustrated surveys of Navy and Marine Corps aircraft remain two of the most valuable books about these airplanes ever written.

The books are arranged chronologically, and feature an aircraft assignment table for each year indicating which aircraft in which squadrons were assigned to specific locations."
