(Click image for a larger view) | Bluenoser Tales is a riveting collection of first-person stories written about the skies over Europe by the pilots and airmen of the 352nd Fighter Group and 1st Service Group of the Mighty Eighth Air Force during WWII. The Bluenosers destroyed 776 enemy aircraft, 554 of those in aerial combat, and produced 29 aces, including the top Mustang ace of WWII and the sixth and seventh top-scoring USAF aces of all US wars: Major George Preddy and Colonel John C. Meyer, respectively. Fly with them on these missions as you read the stories of these young fighter pilots who lived and died to help save the world. This beautiful book of 80+ stories and over 400 wartime photographs is a tribute to their valor--a true history delivered in a way that will never be forgotten. Bluenoser Tales reveals not just the results of battles and the planes they flew but the sinewy, heartwarming, mischievous characters involved. They will remain in your hearts long after the book is closed. |
