About This Item
Guild, 1990. Edition Not Stated. Hardcover. Fine/fine. A stunningly researched, minute-by-minute illustrated narrative of the most intense dawn-to-dark aerial action in the Vietnam War. On May 10th, 1972, airmen of the US Air Force and Navy flew more than 330 sorties against major transportation targets around Hanoi and Haiphong. They were met by 40 North Vietnamese MiG fighters and 93 groung-to-air missiles. How these raids were planned and executed, and their outcomes, are told by the authors in exhaustive detail, based on official documents and personal testimonies from hundreds of those involved, on both sides. Much, much, more than a dry historical collection of facts, here, indeed, is a definitive reconstruction of the white heat of battle in the sky. Contains 217 pages, 24 x 16cm, illlustrated throughout with 70+ b&w photos plus maps and diagrams. Blue cloth boards in Fine illustrated dust-jacket. Internally, Fine: clean, bright and unmarked in excellent bindings. Looks, feels and smells like new inside.
