This extremely detailed two volume set gives an overall statistical summary of 8th Air Force fighter operations during World War II. Covering the period of September 1942 through the end of the war in May 1945, the story of the 8th's fighters is presented in an easy to read format. Each volume also contains over 170 photographs of the pilots and their aircraft. Over the years, many books have been written about the 8th Air Force, but none have combined all the details that appear in these volumes - volume one combines the 8th Air Force's day-to-day operations with individual unit histories; volume two lists all scores and ace details. Kent Miller's books are an invaluable aid to the researcher and historian.

Ten Fighter Boys
<p>The extraordinary stories of ten fighter pilots, told in their very own words during the Second World War.</p> <p>First published by Collins in 1942, this utterly compelling collection of first-hand accounts of ten fighter pilots' experiences at the helm of the Spitfires of 66 Squadron paints one of the most realistic depictions of the battle for the skies over wartime Europe.</p> <p>Offering incredible personal insights into the wartime experience - both in the air and on the ground - the stories are told with unaffected zest, by men who were living in the constant presence of death.</p> <p>Five of the original contributors were killed before the book was originally printed, including the books editors, Wing Commander Athol Forbes and Squadron Leader Hubert Allen. Jimmy Corbin, the last surviving contributor and author of the foreword, passed away in December 2012.</p> <p>Written right in the middle of the war, in the pilots' own words, Ten Fighter Pilots is a truly original and unique account of a terrifying time.</p>
