Description

The B-17 Flying Fortress, Vol. 1: Boeing's Model 299 Through B-17D in World War II This two-volume series begins with the early models of the B-17 Flying Fortress, from the experimental Model 299 to the B-17D, including the famous "Swoose." These early variants are distinguished by their narrow fuselage, art deco styling, and small "shark fin" tail. A wealth of carefully researched photos, many of which have never been published, brings these iconic aircraft to life. Large, clear photographs are accompanied by informative captions that unlock the secrets of the B-17's design, development, and wartime use. The story of these aircraft is told in remarkable clarity, making this book an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of aviation and World War II. With its unique blend of historical context and visual detail, this book is a valuable addition to any collection of military aviation history.
