Review # 1 was written on 2019-04-14 00:00:00 Dorian Khouri Good basic look at the history and basics of Air Defense. Its 25 years old so obviously doesn't speak to wars since but still worth the read

Review # 2 was written on 2014-07-01 00:00:00 Lynn Collins The Influence of Air Power upon History tells the tale of flight from the first balloon travels through to the modern era. As one would expect, much of this history is more accurately termed military history as the evolutionary process and specific modifications to the various crafts were often driven by military need. This book contains good detail about flight history while still managing to be an interesting read. Moreover, the chapters are separated into useful time periods or specific changes in technology that will allow this book to also serve as a useful reference for those individuals looking for information on a particular craft, wanting to explore the influence of flight in particular campaigns, or wanting to understand the air power strategies that each country used in these battles. The Influence of Air Power upon History is a very good all round reference on the history of air power. This book is suitable for those with very little knowledge of flight and is also useful as a reference for those individuals wanting to look deeper into these aspects.
