Might be better to ask in the OFF as I will admit I am looking for one too

Rand McNally Encyclopedia of Military Aircraft: 1914 to the Present

59cents on amazon right now.

And it makes a great monitor stand!

Or a doorstop when significant other arrives loaded down with Xmas boxes.

:)

Several large 3 page color foldouts of scouts and bombers.

These would look nice framed on the wall.

Brief summaries is all there is, not a treasure trove of information.

Needles a better answer can be given if you are a little more specific. There is a large number of very good books. Is price an issue as there are many online resources. Amazon for new of course, ABEbooks for economical secondhand. Here's a few ideas for start

Janes' Fighting Aircraft of World War 1

Knights of the Air from Time/Life

Fighter Aircraft of the 1914-1918 War by Lamberton and Chessman

German Aircraft of World War One by Gray and Thetford

 

That's a small start. Again specifics would help or just searching the net and finding things that sound of interest to you should work pretty well. Much information can be found at the OFF forum and books have been discussed many a time. Maybe try a forum search there?
