内容提要:
“No one does oral history better than Gerald Astor…Great reading.”
  “Gerald Astor has proven himself a master.Here,World War II is brought to life through the hammer blows of their airborne triumphs and fears.”
  “Astor captures the fire and passion of those tens of thousands of U.S.airmen who flew through the inferno that was the bomber war over Europe.”
  “Oral history at its finest.”
  “Quick and well-paced,this will please even the most jaded of readers.”
  “A stout volume by a distinguished historian of the modern military makes a major contribution on its subject.”
  “Today,as we lose the veterans of World War II at an alarming rate,we must not lose sight of their sacrifices or of the leaders who took them into battle.Astor,an acclaimed military historian,provides an in-depth look at one of the war’s most successful division combat commanders,Maj.Gen.Terry Allen…This well-written portrait makes for enjoyable reading.”

Review "Strikes an excellent balance between informing the reader as well as keeping him engaged. An outstanding read." (On Point: The Journal of Army History) Review "Gerald Astor has illuminated the CBI Theater, a remote corner of World War II with his splendid prose, his significant details, and his perceptive comments about the people and events." —Martin Blumenson, author of Kasserine Pass: Rommel's Bloody, Climactic Battle for Tunisia and Anzio: The Gamble That Failed

"Astor vividly recounts the amazing story of one of the most neglected but important battlegrounds of WWII. A gripping, well-researched tale of unconventional warfare." —Carlo D'Este, author of Eisenhower: A Soldier's Life and Patton: A Genius for War
