The author trried to encompass a whole era in just one book. Thus he lost a lot in trying to compress it too much, this saga should haave taken at least one or two more books to have covered this much information. Having said this, I think it was all in all a good representation of this time of history.

Excellent!
Excellent gathering of first-person accounts and reme
mbrances of Eighth AF personnel, with adequate descriptions of what was happening overall to paint a complete picture. Riveting reading!
