    (NEC, 2006)
™ and ©2006 New England Comics Press

Ron Ledwell has chronicled many of the major campaigns of World War II in comic book form and provided profiles for many of the key military specialists. In this book, Ledwell gives a brief history of the Flying Tigers, a group of volunteer American pilots who helped the Chinese Air Force combat the encroaching Japanese forces. He also gives readers an idea of the dangers these pilots faced in taking on the swift and powerful Japanese fighters by presenting extended dogfight sequences, and in one sequence, following a downed pilot behind enemy lines.
