Bargain! THE best all around B-26 Marauder text available,
By A Customer
This review is from: B-26 Marauder Units of the Eighth and Ninth Air Forces (Osprey Combat Aircraft 2) (Paperback)
All Maraudermen should own a copy of this book- for their own enjoyment and to pass along so the next generation will have an idea of what they did in World War Two. This very thoroughly researched book has a little bit of something for everyone interested in the Martin B-26 Marauder. Details of the machines and markings plus narratives from the men who flew them in combat. Insightful and accurate treatment of the myths surrounding the airplane, its setbacks and final vindication as an excellent weapon. Many black and white photographs, most not seen before. Three view line drawings, color profiles of aircraft markings, flight gear portraits of the crews, and excellent text. It confines itself to the European Theater, as the title suggests. There are other excellent B-26 books in print, but you won't find a richer Marauder resource at a better price anywhere.

This review is from: B-26 Marauder Units of the Eighth and Ninth Air Forces (Osprey Combat Aircraft 2) (Paperback)
I purchased this book for my father a world war two veteran who served in the Army Airforce in Europe during the height of the war. He read the book cover to cover in short order and told me it was one of the most accurate aacounts of the B-26 Marauder Units in which he served that he has ever read. Highly recommended for clear, concise accurate account of this unit and its place in history.
