The Airmen and the Headhunters: A True Story of Lost Soldiers, Heroic Tribesmen and the Unlikeliest Rescue of World War II
from Mariner Books
Price: $1.50

Customer Review:

I picked this book up at the Wichita Public Library after finding it on Amazon.com. I'm in the middle of two other books, which OBVIOUSLY weren't as interesting as this was. Several B-24 crews bailed out over Borneo during 1944, were picked up by the local natives, and later (Much Later) taken back... more info

Soul Survivor: The Reincarnation of a World War II Fighter Pilot
from Hay House UK Ltd
Price: $13.89

Customer Review:

I have read widely on the subject of reincarnation and this is one of the most readable and believable books I have come across. I won't say it is great literature because it's not intended to be. It is what it is, the fascinating account of a small boy born with a Second-World-War fighter pilot's... more info

A Dawn Like Thunder: The True Story of Torpedo Squadron Eight
from Back Bay Books
Price: $7.05

Customer Review:

This book brings alive the events in the Pacific in 1942 involving Torpedo Squadron 8. It is masterful writing that brings the participants alive so convincingly that I had to refer to the appendix to remember who survived the events and who had given their lives. The cover up revealed was amazingly... more info

Flyboys
from Aurum Press Ltd
Price: $32.00

Customer Review:

This book was assigned for my AP U.S. History class. I was hesitant at first, mainly because I had seen the atrocity that is "Flags of our Fathers" directed by Clint Eastwood, based off of Bradley's first book. And I will admit, In the beginning I kept thinking "What does any of this have to do with... more info

With Wings Like Eagles: A History of the Battle of Britain
from Harper
Price: $9.95

Customer Review:

This is a great book. I learned a lot about the Battle of Britain. It's not a pilot story with dog fights on every page, but more about the overal Strategy, production problems, important players, and how a relatively few fighter planes, not bombers like most thought, would keep britain safe.more info

Untold Valor: Forgotten Stories of American Bomber Crews over Europe in World War II
from Potomac Books Inc.
Price: $12.56

Customer Review:

Instead of repeating other reviewers, let's focus mostly on seldom-mentioned content. Interestingly, Werner Goering, the nephew of Hermann, fought on the American side. (p. 136-on). Though both Sweden and Switzerland were neutral, the latter tilted strongly towards the Germans (p. 173), and treated... more info

Boyd: The Fighter Pilot Who Changed the Art of War
from Back Bay Books
Price: $5.75

Customer Review:

This book is amazing. I have no military background - I have no relationship with the government (other then being a taxpayer). I simply read this book because of my exposure to Boyd's OODA Loop and how it relates to business decisions. Amazing parallels between the mentality of government and big... more info
