I believe there is still plenty to find on both groups, especially about their background.
Wouldn't the Lafayette squadron pilots count as the first?

Back to the subject.

I have a copy of the original, but would be tempted by a revised 2nd edition (cover art is great IMHO, should have been ofered as a hard cover as well!!).

Could you expand upon the revised part?

To those who haven't got the first edition, choosing this book should be a no brainer.
