Description:
An overview of the developments and deployments of air power in World War I, which forshadowed the decisive role air power played in the World War II and continues to influence military strategies today.
Synopsis:
A fascinating examination of the strategies and uses of air power in the First World War, Sky on Fire covers not only developments in military hardware and tactics but also how public policy and political considerations shaped the ways air power was deployed. Providing an excellent balance of data and statistics as well as human insights, Fredette's book is essential reading for readers interested in the air power, both historically and in contemporary conflicts.
