Summary
Details

"""Millard Harmon is the most important airman people don't know. A flyer through and through, it fell to him alone among senior pilots in World War II to command a large Army organization on the fighting front. He remains the shining light for air forces and airmen searching for a command perch of combined and joint operations, if only they'd look to Robert Novotny's fast-paced, insightful, ground-breaking book.""

Dr. Thomas A. Hughes, Professor of Military History, USAF School of Advanced Air & Space Studies

Author of ""Overlord: General Pete Quesada and the Triumph of Tactical Air Power in World War II"" & ""Admiral Bill Halsey: A Naval Life""

""Millard Harmon should stand with Billy Mitchell and Hap Arnold as a founding father of the USAF. On the cusp of victory in World War II, Harmon's plane disappeared over the Pacific, and history largely forgot him. Novotny's first-rate biography rights this wrong.""

Dr. Richard R. Muller, Professor of Military History, USAF School of Advanced Air & Space Studies

Author of ""The German Air War in Russia"" & ""The Luftwaffe Over Germany: Defense of the Reich"""
