Aviation journalist Nicholas Veronico, author of Boneyard Nose Art, presents a detailed visual history of the well-known U.S. Eighth Air Force and their courageous war in the skies during World War II. Featuring hundreds of photos of American aircraft damaged or shot down by the German Luftwaffe, this book covers all types of U.S. aircraft, from bombers to fighter planes, with detailed captions providing key information on the planes and squadrons, crews, missions, and more. This is the perfect complement to narrative accounts in the Stackpole Military History Series, and an ideal reference for military history fans, scholars, and modelers.
Nick Veronico's previous books include The Blue Angels. He lives near San Francisco.
