While the AH-64 is well known in US service, several foreign countries also operate this potent attack helicopter.  Greece received many Apaches to fill out its attack helicopter requirements and this book focuses entirely on these helicopters.  While the book is in Greek, the captions are in English, making it somewhat easier to follow than some of the earlier Periscopio publications.  Like the F-16 and Mirage 2000 books reviewed elsewhere in this issue, the photos presented are all in color and feature both detail shots and pictures of AH-64s in service.  Detail shots include cockpit pictures, weaponry, and exterior details as well as what the pilots wear.  The text, while  in Greek, looks to be quite complete and covers just about everything you would want to know about the AH-64 in Hellenic service.
