Vol. II (and also Vol. I ) contain the most comprehensive history of an air unit in combat ever produced. This includes a detailed narrative text, an outstanding collection of black and white and original color photography, extensive maps showing the unit operating areas, bases, missions and losses, and incredible artwork, including 56 aircraft color profiles and seven full color battle scene paintings done by world renowned aviation artist Jack Fellows.
Nothing like this has ever been produced before in aviation literature.

464 pages of new material, 32-page color section, 32 B-24 color aircraft profiles, 4 color combat paintings as well as 677 black and white photos.
Between the two volumes, there are:
880 pages, 48 color pages, 56 B-17 and B-24 aircraft color profiles, 7 color combat paintings, 1200+ black and white photos.
