A Great Book!
« on: July 02, 2003, 07:49:04 AM »
All,

There are so many great books on WW2 and especially WW2 aviation. Recently I was waiting in the book store while the girlfriends were busy reading girlie mags and came across this great book.

ACES by William Yenne

For a easy read on the aces from all countries during WW2 it's a great book. It gives a brief detail on the air foces at the time, planes used and the greatest aces from all countries. Alot of the aces I'd never heard of before and was very interesting to learn about them and theatres of operations they got their kills in.

There are a great few pages dedicated to in the Authors opinion might be regarded as the greatest Ace of all time. I'll try and type out some excerpts tomorrow, as his skill and story is truly amazing.

Anyway, thought this might be of interest to someone.
