Quick but interesting book about one of the obscure but highly effective medium bombers of WWII. Author was an American farm boy that went to war, came home and used the G I Bill to become a neurophysiologist and college professor. He does an excellent job of providing enough technical detail about the Martin Marauder to show why it was such an efficient air weapon. Although his career as a B26 navigator was brief it covered almost the entire combat life of this little known airplane. ( )
