Masters of the Air America's Bomber Boys Who

World War II could not have been won without the bombers of the U.S. Eighth Air Force, which pummeled Germany by day while the British bombed at night. In Masters of the Air, prizewinning historian Donald L. Miller tells the dramatic story of the American bomber boys (Clark Gable and Jimmy Stewart among them) who brought the war to Hitler's doorstep before Allied soldiers stepped on German soil.

Donald L. Miller is the John Henry MacCracken Professor of History at Lafayette College
