Critical Acclaim for The American Aces Speak Series
The Marine Corps Aviation Association Yellow Sheet says: “The
recounting of each story is done in the pilot’s own words. This is a
powerful technique that draws readers into the action and introduces
them to the world of the fighter pilot”
The American Fighter Aces Bulletin says: “Some of [the] episodes
are well-known; others have never been written before. But each account
delivers something intensely personal about the Pacific Air War.”
The Library Journal says: “No PR hype or dry-as-dust prose here.
Hammel allows his flyers to tell their stories in their own way . . . Exciting
stuff aviation and World War II buffs will love.”
Book Page says: “For those who have an interest in World War II, or
those who simply like to read of drama in the skies, Eric Hammel’s
[Aces Against Japan] is recommended reading. It is a must for any
historian’s bookshelf.”
WWII Aviation Booklist says: “Hammel provides a veritable feast of
aviation combat narrative. As always in this series, the entries [in Aces
at War] have been carefully selected to provide the most entertaining
ride possible for his readers. Easily the best series available on air combat!
