5.0

i loved this book. swift uses personal narrative, interspersed with bomber pilot poetry and critical evaluations to deftly examine how the pilots of WWII served in such a different capacity than soldiers in previous wars or than soldiers in their own war. using literature and verse to discuss issues of historical and military importance? a beautiful, creative way to challenge the ideas of war poetry and art. simply a lovely book.
