Israeli Fighter Aces

Israeli Fighter Aces by Mersky, Peter. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781883809157.

This is the first account of the individual experiences and backgrounds of what many people consider to be the most successful group of combat aviators of the post-World War II era. More than just a general history of the Israel Air Force, this book presents, in chronological order, specific personal recollections of these highly trained, highly motivated pilots: the cream of their small nations society. "Israeli Fighter Aces" recounts names, individual engagements, and individual claims with material never before seen in the West and only previously known to a small circle within the IAF. Never has such a wide window been opened on this unique and fascinating subject. Peter Mersky is known for his books and magazines on the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps aviation.
