The Mighty Eighth at War, Martin W. Bowman.

The Mighty Eighth at War, Martin W. Bowman.

Looks at the evolving battle between the Luftwaffe and the Eighth Air Force, as seen by the US airmen themselves.

Bowman provides a framework that links these accounts, as well as some detailed footnotes expanding on the airmen's experiences.
