 Join The NewSouth Bookstore on Thursday, May 5 from 5:00 to 7:00 pm for a reception to celebrate the publication of The Tuskegee Airmen, An Illustrated History: 1939-1949, with authors Joseph Caver, Jerome Ennels, and Daniel Haulman. Light refreshments will be served.
Many documentaries, articles, museum exhibits, books, and movies have treated the subject of the Tuskegee Airmen. Most of these works have focused on their accomplishments during combat. This publication goes further, using captioned photographs—many never published before—to trace the Airmen through the various stages of training, deployment, and combat. It also showcases the work of the Airmen's diverse ground personnel. Written by archivist/historians with the Air Force Historical Research Agency, where many primary sources are located, this book is the first to contain a detailed chronology of the Airmen's missions flown. Importantly, it is also the first to provide definitive proof that the claim the Airmen "never lost a bomber" is false.
The Tuskegee Airmen, An Illustrated History: 1939-1949 is a unique contribution to the lore of this legendary group of flyers.
