- Comments: The spine of a book is often the first to show signs of aging and frequent use, bearing the weight of repeated opening and closing. This wear might manifest as creases, cracks, or even partial detachment, but it also signifies that the book has been well-loved and thoroughly read. Such physical characteristics add a layer of history and character to the book, distinguishing it from pristine, untouched copies.

SUMMARY
Ace fighter pilots like Jimmy Thach and Butch O'Hare are justly renowned for their daring exploits in the perilous early months of the Pacific War when the U.S. Navy carrier fighting (VF) squadrons amassed a remarkable combat record in the face of desperate odds. Yet, exactly how these skilled aviators and their squadron mates- called the 'first team, ' in keeping with athletic jargon popular at the time- overcame the odds to help turn the tide of war has, until now, remained little known. With this comprehensive operational history of carrier-based air warfare, their heroic feats can at last be closely examined.Lundstrom, John B. is the author of 'First Team Pacific Naval Air Combat from Pearl Harbor to Midway' with ISBN 9780870211898 and ISBN 0870211897.
