Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. In fact, the early heavy bombers stranded in the Philippines by the Japanese invasion in late 1941 didn't prove to be of much use (maneuverable warships proved more susceptible to dive bombers), and were quickly withdrawn to Australia -- it would be the job of their successors, the steel-clad B-29s, to flatten industrial Japan.
