The Douglas Dauntless was the U.S. Navy’s frontline dive-bomber in the early days of WWII. Even after the larger and more powerful Helldiver joined the fleet in the later stages of the war, the Dauntless remained, flying from the decks of escort carriers, which were too small to permit the operation of the later aircraft, as well as continuing to serve from the decks of fleet carriers. Carefully researched war-era photos are combined with color images of modern-day preserved aircraft, capturing the details of this flying legend. 128 pages, 9″x9″, hardcover.
