GENERAL ""BILLY"" MITCHELL by Roger Burlingame

GENERAL ""BILLY"" MITCHELL

By

Pub Date: Nov. 1st, 1952
Publisher: McGraw-Hill

This is perhaps a better presentation for young adults than Levine's Mitchell (1941). It is a warmhearted biography of the Air Force's champion and has many lively anecdotes from his early and later career that point up the charming irascibility of this favorite general. Meaty details about his international experiences in Cuba, the Phillipines, and Alaska and about his experiences building the Air Force.
