Masters of the Air

For fans of Band of Brothers, this is your next magnificent read, the story of the WW2 American air war in Europe. Like Band of Brothers, Masters of the Air follows a close-knit group of men, the Hundredth Bomb Group of the Eighth Air Force, sent to England to join what would turn out to be the longest battle of the war. The day-to-day lives of the airmen, their struggle with flak, fighters and the weather, the legendary Flying Fortresses, the terror and exhilaration of combat – Masters of the Air brings all of this to life.

In collaboration with the author, we've brought together some incredible elements: exclusive introductions from Tom Hanks and Kirk Saduski; a new photo selection chosen and captioned by the author, many images drawn from the archives of the 100th Bomb Group, the Museum of the Mighty Eighth Air Force and the National WW2 Museum; a magnificent piece of aviation art from one of the masters, Gil Cohen; and a large foldout colour illustration in a separate pouch of original cutaways of the inside of a Flying Fortress. This is the ultimate fan's version.
