Secret U.S. Proposals of the Cold War
As the son of a World War II B-25 pilot, author Jim Keeshen's earliest memories were of seeing his father in the cockpit of a DC-3 at the airport across the street from their home. His Dad was flying Texaco executives in Venezuela at the time, but at age 5, Keeshen relocated with his family to Ontario, California. Weekends soon found father and son at nearbyChino Airport where they flew early radio control models together in the 1950s. Hence, Keeshen's passion for building and collecting model airplanes was firmly established. He earned his FAA pilot's license and took aerobatic training as well. Jim worked for more than 25 years in the field of animation, his other life's passion. Keeshen's writings have been published in many newspapers and magazines, and he has also written two children's books. This is his first book about aviation.
