Filled with over 200 rare original WWII color photos of US Navy aircraft and carriers on duty.
This book has two things happening at once: a collection of all-color photography taken before and during WW2 of USN aviation, and first person accounts of aerial combat. On any given page the photos have nothing to do with the text. But this book still worked; each of the separate elements contributed to a good reading experience.
