Re: Coming Soon - "Harvest of the Grim Reapers" The Illustrated History of the 3rd & 27th Bomb Groups (1941-1942)

Thanks to Bill Stone at "Stone & Stone Second World War Books" for reviewing our history of the 3rd & 27th BGs.

Bill Stone writes:
"There are unit histories and then there are unit histories. . . . In this case, Hickey, Rogers, Tagaya, and Jonas have done a fine job constantly reminding readers this is a history of men, not airplanes. They animate every page of their book with lives of young airmen on the far side of the world all these many years ago."

". . . Harvest of the Grim Reapers is unsurpassed when it comes to providing a thorough, engaging history of the 3rd Bombardment Group and the ill-fated, short-lived 27th Bombardment Group. And the authors never allow readers to forget that every mission, every victory, and every loss involved young airmen far from home. This is a terrific book with a huge amount of appeal for anyone interested in the air war in the Pacific."
