Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Walter Boyne knows his aviation. He may be rightly called the Dean of aviation writers. A former military pilot and former Director of the National Air and Space Museum of the Smithsonian in Washington, DC, he is an author that I would recommend anyone who has an interest in aviation should read. Not only has he produced historical books about aviation, he's also written some very fine novels about the early days and progress of commercial and military aviation called Trophy for Eagles,Air Force Eagles and Eagles at War. He has also written a great book on the Air Force called 'Wild Blue'. These I also highly recommend. In this book, Boyne gives a good overview of the air war in WWII. He covers all theaters, recounts the classic air battles in the Pacific and in Europe, describes the planes that were used and tells of the men who flew them. In fact, the book is so spare that it almost feels like there needs to be more. For someone who wants a well-written, well-researched overview, this is the book to read about the air war in WWII and I recommend it.
