About This Item
Reviews
Although Steinbeck was disappointed at being denied a military commission due to the FBI's perception of his "left wing politics", he was eager to accompany Douglas Fairbanks Jr.'s bombing team on raids on islands in the Mediterranean during World War II. His enthusiastic descriptions, coupled with the photographs of Swope, give a unique and historic view of the fledgling US Air Force bombing team.
