Latest Issue: SUMMER 2010

Leading Air Power History’s Summer 2010 edition is Roger Miller’s latest chapter on the life of military aviation pioneer Lewis R. Brereton – who in “Under the Influence” and “Acting with Prejudice” finds himself the subject of a “dastardly” vendetta launched by an influential politician.

Also featured in this issue is A. D. Harvey’s latest documentary gem: an account of a German Zeppelin raid on London in 1917, along with a history of Afghanistan’s air force during the crucial period from 1989-2009 – written by Forrest Marion, who based his research in part on interviews with several Afghan military leaders.

The latest edition of Air Power History also includes an informative essay on the 1934 air mail episode by Justin Libby, Professor Emeritus, Indiana University; 20 new book reviews; and a letter from the Foundation’s President, Maj Gen Dale W. Meyerrose, USAF (Ret).
