Summary: this book is a must-read for chennault fans!
Comment: This book was written at the tail end of B/gen scotts career as commander of Luke Air Force Base in arizona. Knowing what we know now about Gen Chennault and his men and their collective discontent for authority, specifically the likes of clayton bissell and joseph stilwell, i can only assume that "Scotty" held back somewhat in this writing. Maybe back in the 50s you were supposed to be reserved. However, this is an excellent story of one of the rennaisance men of aviation, a man who single handedly changed the way we fight in the air. Chennault was handcuffed almost from the start, being labeled as a maverick and cast aside much too early in a career that would eventually transform itself into the world of civilian air transportation with the flying tiger line.

There have been many books on chennault, but this one is one from one of the "regulars" who won over not only chennault but his band of merrymen known as the AVG, or the REAL flying tigers.! It is definitely one that i recommend to any fan of Gen chennault or Robert L. Scott.
