Experience World War II aerial combat firsthand with true-life accounts from Allied and Axis pilots who were really there.
An American who flew a P-36 against the Japanese at Pearl Harbor while still in his Sunday pajamas. A German Sturmstaffel pilot who tangled with American B-24s in the skies over his homeland. A British RAF officer who mastered flight in the Spitfire fighter. A Hungarian Bf 109 pilot who went up against Allied P-51s and survived despite being heavily outnumbered.
The stories of these brave aviators and many more come to life in Wings of War, a collection of aerial combat tales gathered by James P. Busha's personal interviews with surviving veterans. Encompassing the global conflict from late 1939 through the end of the war in 1945, this book provides chronological snapshots not only of famous and significant events from the air war, but also of other lesser-known but equally thrilling and important events. Over two dozen Allied and Axis pilots and their airplanes are featured, giving you a unique experience at the controls of the war's famed fighter, bomber, liaison, and jet airplanes.
With combat spanning the globe—from the skies over Europe to the deserts of Africa, the Pacific theater, and more—this is one book no fan of warbirds will want to miss!
