Dust jacket price is unclipped and the top edge has several small tears and some light chipping at the bottom. When a sickly half-deaf forty-seven-year-old retired Air Corps Captain went to China in 1937 to survey Chiang Kai-shek's Chinese Air Force little did the world know this would be the man to stem the Japanese tide in the Far East. Almost every military expert predicted his handful of pilots of the American Volunteer Group would not last three weeks. Yet in seven months in 1942 the AVG fighting over Burma China Thailand and Indochina destroyed a confirmed 199 planes with another 153 probables. They did this losing only four pilots and twelve P-40s in air combat and sixty-one on the ground. The author offers a fascinating inside look at this legendary man behind the Flying Tigers. Chennault was no saintly military leader. He was a chain-smoking bourbon-drinking man who loved the ladies. He was the kind of leader his men knew could and did fly better than they -- in any kind of plane. But first and last he was a tough single-minded warrior who was never confused by who the enemy was in Asia: the Japanese when he arrived and after VJ Day the Chinese Communists regardless of what the State Department thought. Following Chennault from his command of the Fourteenth U.S. Army Air Force during World War II to the part of his life that is not well known-the intriguing postwar years in China and Formosa where his Civilian Air Transport CAT became the scourge of the Red Chinese. This book is an extraordinary portrait of one of America's great military commanders. . First Edition Stated. Hard Back. As New/Good. 6 1/2" X 9 1/2". Doubleday Hardcover
