5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Of The B-17, Flying Fortress books, March 8, 1998
By 
Bob Stane (Altadena, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Flying Fortress (Hardcover)
This book is a "must have" for any collector of air combat books. The best of the best. Excellent collections of factual stories. Completely entertaining. If you can't buy it look for it in a good public library and enjoy. Then try to buy it for your private library. BOB STANE President B-17 Combat Crewmen & Wingmen Pasadena, California

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, June 10, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Flying Fortress (Hardcover)
If want a clear concise history of the B-17, from the planes that inspired it, through the development of Project 299, through WWII, this is perhaps the best book on the subject. Written over 30 years ago, it includes information that is rarely heard of today.

4.0 out of 5 stars accurate, informative account of significant era of history, November 17, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Flying Fortress (Hardcover)
This is an accurate account of a vital era of American air power which helped preserve the freedom of the world. The validation of air power as a vital offensive and defensive necessity in war was made by the author's objective presentation of just one of America's battle aircraft. My brother-in-law's B-17 is pictured upside down over Naples, Italy, although not identified, on the full-page picture. I can supply information if author or anyone is interested.
