Carrollton, TX: Squadron/Signal Publications. Very Good+. 2003. 1st Printing. Paperback. 089747452X . B&W and Color Photographs & Illustrations; This is an oblong paperback book. The book is in Very Good+ condition and was issued without a dust jacket. The book and its contents are in clean, bright condition. The text pages are clean and bright. "The prototype for the C-46 plane was the Curtiss CW-20, designed in 1937 by George A. Page Jr. , the chief aircraft designer at Curtiss-Wright. The CW-20 was envisioned as a private venture to introduce a new standard in pressurized airliners. The resulting design was a large, aerodynamically "sleek" airliner, incorporating the cockpit in a streamlined glazed "dome". But with the advent of war, priority shifted to military aircraft. The first C-46 flight took place on March 26, 1940, and by the time of first delivery to the Army Air Force in 1942, it had been named the "Commando"." (from Wikipedia) .

Words that in the not-too-distant past were obscure and seldom heard - anthrax, smallpox, sarin - have become impossible to avoid. In clear, non-alarmist language, Eric Croddy provides a detailed survey of the key issues related to CBW - chemical and biological warfare. He extensively details known chemical and biological agents, describes how they are weaponized, considers the roles they have played in history, and evaluates the actual risk of their being uses in today's highly…
