The U.S. air services commander in World War I, Mitchell was a feisty champion for air supremacy whose outspoken manner led to his court-martial. This illustrated 1925 treatise employs Congressional records, articles, and personal experience to articulate a controversial vision of air power that was ultimately vindicated.
Industry Reviews

Arguably no American was more instrumental in promoting the development and use of airpower than Billy Mitchell. Winged Defense remains a premier aviation classic and a must-read for all service and commercial aviators. Logisticians, military historians, entrepreneurs, economists, leaders of all types, and those interested in the power of ideas will find this book valuable.
