Angels Twenty: A Young American Flier a Long Way from Home
Edwards Park,
Publisher: McGraw-Hill Professional
ISBN: 0075821257   Edition: Hardcover; 1997-01-01

Summary:

Edwards Park, WWII fighter pilot and one of the founders of
Smithsonian magazine recounts his experiences as a young American
flier in a backwater of the war--the jungles of New Guinea. Beaver
Squadron's P-39s were badly outmatched by the Japanese Zeroes, but
they held the line. Park's account, often humorous, often moving, is
faithful to the spirit of his old comrades and the planes they loved.
