4.0 out of 5 stars
A fine basic history of the BUFF,
By A Customer
This review is from: Boeing B-52: Stratofortress (Crowood Aviation) (Hardcover)
I found this book fascinating, especially the chapter having to do with the island of Guam. I was a B-52 crew chief for approximately 12 years and I have stood on Pati's Point and looked across Andersen's flight line at the forest of B-52D "tall tails". I simply couldn't put it down until the end. We, my wife and I, did find several errors in the book, but to the novice/civilian reading it they are of no consequence as they concern the organizations and not the plane. I also am a member of the B-52 Stratofortress Association.

Overall a great book and Amazon has a very fair price for it,
By A Customer
This review is from: Boeing B-52: Stratofortress (Crowood Aviation) (Hardcover)
Good Points: Over 200 photos of which about 1/2 are previously unpublished. Personal comments from a number of actual crew members let you know you're getting the facts. Technical accuracy is better than most other B-52 books I have read. Bad Points: Index is too brief and leaves a lot to be desired. Interview with the USAF Reserve Bomb Squadron was good but the Authors should have featured one of the older units with a lengthy history.
