How big a role did the aircraft play in World War 2? I had no idea before reading this book, but most importantly I had never really given it a thought. I’m glad I read this book now, for now I can see World War 2 in a different light. There were so many different people, different theories and different aspects to this war that after reading the book it is very hard to classify it simply as a war where 2 groups were acting in opposition to each other.When we think about it now, it seems quite natural that airplanes would be playing a role in warfare but at one point of time, airplanes occupied a very small place in wars and most people were skeptical about how useful it would actually be. In this ebook, Ryan Jenkins traces the rise of the airplane from obscurity into prominence and also talks about famous personalities who were responsible for giving the airplane its place of importance in war.
