8000 Feet over Hell: 35 Combat Missions Against Japanese Targets in the B-29 Superfortress (Hardcover)

This book is a memoir of Nicholas T. Constandelis's adventures during World War II, from his induction into the US Army/Air Force to ultimately flying 35 combat missions over Japanese targets. While being both historically accurate and well documented, this book is a personal account of everything of interest that went on, what my father saw, felt, and thought during those harrowing times. We have tried to communicate the total experience of th War from a young and inexperienced GI's viewpoint, and have shared both the humorous and horrific details of the experience. The book contains many black-and-white photographs.
