the Wild Blue : A History of the United States Air Force, 1947-1997,
by Walter J. Boyne (1 Ed, Hardcover, 424 pages, 1997)
The New
York Times Book Review, Russell F. Weigley : It is a decidedly

of Air Force policy. Yet it is also a valuable compendium of information,
especially on organizational matters and the performance details of aircraft
and missiles.
