McDonnell F-101 Voodoo (Osprey Air Combat Series)
198 pages. Index. Glossary. Profusely illustrated with reproductions of black and white photos and twelve in color. "Altough designed to escort American bombers into the Soviet Union, the McDonnell F-101 Voodoo's most numerous variant became an interceptor guarding North America from other bombers. The story begins in the crucible of Southeast Asia, with the men of the 20th Tactical Reconnaissance Squadron. Many of these men were interviewed specially for this book. Includes the Chinese Nationalist RF-101A flights over the mainland from Taiwan, and a first-hand account from the Canadian back-seater of an F-101B. Although incredibly difficult to fly, this aircraft was loved by all who went aloft in her during peace and war." - back cover. Clean and unmarked with moderate wear. A sound copy. Book
