"Race of Aces brings you into the cockpit of the lethal, fast-paces world of fighter pilots as they strive to achieve ace-level status .Bruning's unique and intimate look at the struggles of these men to balance honor, duty to country, and their pursuit to be the best makes this account even more fascinating. This is a book you can't put down and a story you will reflect upon long after turning the last page." - Sara Vladic, author. ".Bruning brilliantly re-creates the excitement and terror of one of the greatest untold stories of World War II: the nerve-shredding three-year contest to become America's deadliest fighter pilot. Exhaustively researched and expertly written - with dogfights as vivid and gripping as any I've read - the book confirms Bruning's status as the premier war historian of the air." - Saul David, author. "The Astonishing Untold Story of the WWII Airmen Who Risked It All in the Deadly Race To Become The Greatest American Fighter Pilot. In 1942, America's deadliest fighter pilot, or "ace of aces" - the legendary Eddie Rickenbacker - offered a bottle of bourbon to the first U.S. fighter pilot to break his record of twenty-six enemy planes shot down. Siezing on the challenge to motivate his men, General George Kenney promoted what they would come to call the "race of aces" as a way of boosting the spirits of his war-weary command. What developed was a wild three-year sprint for fame and glory and the chance to be called America's greatest fighter pilot. The complete story has never been told until now. Based on new research and full of revelations, John R. Bruning's brilliant, original book tells the story of how five American pilots contended for personal glory in the Pacific while leading Kenney's resurgent air force against the most formidable enemy America ever faced. The pilots - Richard Bong, Tommy McGuire, Neel Kearby, Charles MacDonald, and Gerlad Johnson - riveted the nation as they contended for Rickenbacker's crown. While their scores mounted, they transformed themselves from farm boys and aspiring dentists into artists of the modern dogfight. But as the race reached its climax, some of the pilots began to see how the spotlight warped their sense of duty. They emerged as leaders, beloved by their men as they chose selfless devotion over national accolades. Teeming with action across the vast Pacific theater, Race of Aces is a fascinating exploration of the boundary between honorable duty, personal glory, and the complex landscape of the human heart." - from the inner front jacket flap.
