Flying For Her Country: The American and Soviet Women Military Pilots of World War II - Strebe, Amy Goodpaster

Clean, tight, unmarked; light wear to top edge, and corners; damp stain to bottom inside edge; otherwise very minimal wear; Strebe tells the story of the 2000 American and Soviet women pilots who served in World War II and faced both combat risks and oppression from within the ranks. Written for general audiences as well as aviation and military buffs, this book is one of the first to directly compare the service of the WASPs and the Soviet airwomen and notes that while the former group did not fly in combat missions, they still experienced casualties while fighting for their country.
