Booktopia Comments
*** This book is now out of print and these are the last of the brand new copies available. Once stocks run out it may be difficult to pick up a new copy.

A small format paperback printed in the highest quality packed with photos and text on the war in the air. Would be an excellent gift for anyone who has an interest in military history especially in aviation. Highly recommended at this special price.
Product Description
As early as the First World War planes served as scouts, fighters, and bombers - and by World War II most of the advanced nations had large military air forces dedicated to bombardment.

Starting with the less-than-perfect aircraft that flew over Europe in 1915, which caused countless deaths, see how technology developed between the wars; the early campaigns of WWII; air battles on the Eastern front; the defeat of the Luftwaffe; and sky combat in the Pacific.

However, in 1945 aircraft did indeed achieve total dominance with the atomic bomb raids on Japan.

A new era of warfare had begun.

A compact book, informative, with good photographs and diagrams. Fully indexed.

Author Biography: Professor Williamson Murray served in the US Air Force before receiving his PhD at Yale and becoming Professor of History at Ohio State University.
