A photographic history of the B-25 medium bomber: late-war G through J, F-10, and PBJ models (Volume 2 of 2)

This second of two volumes on the North American B-25 Mitchell covers the late-WWII G through J, F-10, and PBJ variants of the famed US medium bomber.

Among the many topics discussed are the Mitchell versions used by the US Navy and Marine Corps, as well as photo-recon and experimental types. B-25s in foreign wartime service are also shown, including those used in Poland, France, England, and Soviet Russia.

A detailed chapter covers all types of armament used in the Mitchell, from guns and cannon of various calibers to ammunition used, including machine gun rounds, rockets, and bombs.

A special section of the book features discussions on unique B-25 missions, events, and aircrew during WWII and in the postwar era, such as the April 1942 Doolittle Raid and the B-25 collision with the Empire State Building in July 1945.

B-25 appearances in classic feature films such as Thirty Seconds over Tokyo and Catch-22 are also detailed.
William Wolf was a dentist for 22 years in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, before retiring at the age of 45 to pursue his aviation interests and outdoor pastimes of hiking, mountain climbing, road and mountain biking, and sea kayaking.
