In a sense, technical advances have written finis to the Golden Age of the aerial dogfight. Modern jets, radar sights, electronically operated triggers and missiles are eliminating the human factor. In a World War II fighter plane the dimensions of war were reduced to basics—man versus man. This was war at its more personal level, in which a pilot met the enemy in an intimate struggle for survival. Here in this unforgettable book is a fitting tribute to these aces of the past—hair-raising accounts of aerial dogfights which occurred in the great land and sea battles in Europe, Africa and the Pacific.
