Biografieën
A firsthand account of aerial warfare from a USAAF veteran who flew in fighter bombers during WWII, perfect for military aviation enthusiasts. George Webster, a flight radio operator on a B-17 during the second world war, gives readers a first person account from the inside of a bomber plane. Focusing on the 92nd Bomb Group, 8th Air Force, including missions to the Schweinfurt ball-bearing plant and Berlin, Webster’s memoir is vivid and intimate, describing the bitter cold at high altitudes, gut-wrenching fear, lethal shrapnel from flak, and German fighters darting through the bomber formation like feeding sharks. One of the first accounts of being shot down over Sweden, The Savage Sky is as close as you can get to experiencing aerial combat while still staying firmly planted on the ground. “If you want to know what it was really like to fly in a bomber—read this!” —George Murdoch, Armchair Auctions
