If you are one of those modelers who relishes in detail, then this is a series of books that will interest you. Chris Reed has taken the time to provide what is a perfect modeler's companion, this time on the US Army's OV-1D Mohawk

This one is a bit different from the others in that all the images are of a single aircraft without any of the additional US government photos or markings drawings that have been in earlier books. This aircraft is apparently a museum or warbird version as there are 'Grumman' and 'Goodyear' logos on the nose gear doors, something that an operational aircraft wouldn't have. Regardless, the images are large and the amount of detail shown inside and on the covers is just what the modeler needs. Having the book spiral bound means that you can keep a specific page open and flat, ready to use without having to juggle keeping the page open.

An excellent value for the money. For those who don't need a paper book, you can get a downloadable PdF copy for $3.09.
