Hi Shelley,
Thanks for your interest.This book is mostly a photographic account of the group under the command of Major Harry J.Bullis,Major Dale J.Thornhill and Major C.Vernon Ekstrand in the Southwest Pacific 1942-1944.It is 96 pages with 3 pages dedicated to some of the nose art,28 pages of aerial bombing missions on various Pacific Islands and the rest covers some of the groups crews and movements from Hickam Field,Hawaii to Australia and New Guinea.On each page the photo's are surrounded by some pretty outstanding art work including some by Cedric Emanuel.
I could send some photo's of the book if you would like to leave your email address. Thanks and Merry Christmas
Larry
