They were the high-flying heroes who fought our wars, inspired the country, and left a proud legacy. Now America’s greatest living fighter aces tell their personal stories-many for the first time – in this extraordinary record of aerial combat from World War I through Vietnam.

Legendary World War II Marine ace Joe Foss and highly decorated Vietnam veteran and distinguished author Matthew Brennan bring together twenty-seven fighter pilots to create this astonishing volume of oral history. You are there, in the major theaters of four wars – in the cockpit, on life-on-death missions – seeing the enemy and the battle through the aces eyes.
