Title: An easy reading history of Air combat tactics.
Review: Ever wonder why flying circuses of huge numbers of planes grew up in the first world war. Why did airforces forget the reasons in World war two and have to relearn the power of the big wing formation in the battle of britain? Why do modern jets fight in pairs? This book is a well written run through the broad history of air combat showing why certain tactics developed. It covers air engagements from the First World War up to Vietnam. It is written in a non-technical and non-military way which is appealing to the layman, but the strategic analysis is excellent.
