‎US NAVAL AIRPOWER: SUPERCARRIER IN ACTION.‎

‎Osceola WI: Motorbooks International 1987. 128 pp square 9 1/4" H x 9 1/4" D. Profusely illustrated with color photographs. "The aircraft carrier is many things apart from a ship. It is a floating airbase a symbol of power and a seagoing home to more than 5000 men. In fact the crew complement of a carrier is three times that of the biggest battle-ship of the 1940s. Every member of the crew from the captain to the commander of the air wing to the first-cruise enlisted man is trained in and works in the culture of naval aviation a culture that addresses the demands of survival in the world's two most unforgiving professions: seamanship and aviation. Watching some of the inhabitants of this small city gives some idea of the challenges they routinely face in their day-to-day work. This is an outsider's look inside. Renowned 'Time' photographer Neil Leifer went onboard USS Carl Vinson America's largest nuclear-powered carrier to photograph 'a day in the life of' feature. This is what he saw. Aviation specialist Bill Sweetman saw these superb graphic photographs and captioned them with near classified detail. So that every enthusiast avid or simply passing could draw interest and knowledge from within." Bump to top of spine light edge wear. Dust jacket has light edge wrinkling/creasing - mainly at top/bottom of spine and flap-folds one small edge tear archivally taped. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. Illus. by Neil Leifer photography. Motorbooks International Hardcover‎

‎FLYING TIGERS.‎

‎New York: Gallery 1990. 80 pp 12 1/8" H. Profusely illustrated with b&w and colour photographs. "In August 1941 a handful of young Americans disembarked at Rangoon Burma the first contingent of fighter pilots of Claire Lee Chennault's American Volunteer Group. Enlisted from the US Army Navy and Marine Corps to aid the Chinese Nationalist forces of Chiang Kai-shek in their bitter war against the Japanese Chennault's aviators were destined to gain worldwide renown as the Flying Tigers. Within the year the Flying Tigers' distinctive shark-toothed P-40 fighters would be credited with destroying nearly 300 enemy aircraft. Chennault was an innovative aerial tactician and recognizing his unit's acute shortages of pilots and aircraft decreed that his three squadrons - the Adam and Eves Hell's Angels and Panda Bears - were only to engage the enemy on the most favorable terms. His strict code of war paid dividends during the hard-fought air combats over Rangoon in which the Flying Tigers consistently outfought a numerically superior enemy thereby preventing the Japanese from gaining air superiority over the Burmese capital and allowing the British and Imperial ground troops to make their escape to the Indian border. 'Flying Tigers' retells the full story behind one of World War II's most colorful fighting elite forces from the recruitment of the first pilots through their intial training in Burma and the savage dogfights over Rangoon to their missions defending the retreating Allied forces. A final chapter looks at the demise of the unit and makes a critical assessment of its contribution to the Allied war effort." Minor corner wear. Dust jacket has light rubbing some areas of very light edge wear/wrinkling small tear wrinkling at top of spine - archivally taped. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. Gallery Hardcover‎

"Frank Gifford Tallman III April 17 1919 in East Orange New Jersey � April 15 1978 in Santiago Peak Trabuco Canyon California was a stunt pilot who worked in Hollywood during the 1960s and 1970s. He was the son of Frank Gifford Tallman Jr. 1894 � 1952 and Inez Evelyn Foster 1894 � 1982. As a teenager he took flying lessons and became a pilot. When World War II started Tallman tried to enter the military as a pilot but his application was declined due to his lack of the required two years of college. He worked for a time as a civilian pilot instructor and later in the war was able to join the U. S. Navy when they relaxed their education requirements. Tallman remained stateside until the end of the war." . Doubleday & Company, Inc. hardcover‎
