5.0 out of 5 stars One of the "TOP 10 MUST HAVE" P-38 books., September 21, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: P-38 Lightning - 2nd Ed (Hardcover)

If you're the type of person who wants to know the details, then this is one of the books you must have. Photos and information contained in this book are not found elsewhere. Pamela Reynolds-Woods is not an aviation author I recognise, but I would not hesitate to buy another of her aviation books, particularly a P-38 book. Facts are compressed into one, two, and three page summaries of specifications, battles, campaigns, theaters, fighter groups and squadrons, and personal stories. A number of important lists are herein, and not in any other of the 40+ P-38 books I've read. Some 50+ bios on pilots and crew-chiefs are here, look no further. Want to know about WASPs and the P-38, they're here too. Check your 6, and your wallet now. Go get one.

This review is from: P-38 Lightning - 2nd Ed (Hardcover)

if your into the men who flew this a/c then buy this book. half of this book is written on individual men who flew it, what happened to them then and where they are now. it also breaks down kills of the aircraft by ww2 combat units. 97 squadrons, 37 groups. very good read.
