Master of Airpower General Carl A. Spaatz
California: Presidio Press, 1988. Small quarto, hardcover, viii, 430 pp., illustrated. Cover lightly bumped at the bottom of the spine. Otherwise a fine copy in a near-fine dust-jacket. The story of General Carl "Tooey" Spaatz's life is more than a biography of one of America's great military leaders. It is a history of the development of airpower - from the days of the 90-horsepower Curtiss "Jennie" to early jet aircraft. It is also a fascinating inside look at the long, difficult struggle to win autonomy for the United States Air Force. Item #1628
