American Bomber Aircraft of World War II: 1941-45

American Bomber Aircraft of World War II is a detailed guide to all the bombers deployed by the USAAF and US Navy from 1941 to 1945. Organized chronologically, this book includes all the great types of the era, such as the B-17 Flying Fortress, which led the daylight bombing campaign against German industrial targets; the B-24 Liberator, which carried out the famous raid on the Ploesti oil refinery in Romania in 1943; and the B-29 Superfortress, the aircraft most responsible for degrading Japan's ability to wage war with its constant aerial attacks throughout 1944 and 1945.
