Buell, Harold L. Dauntless Helldivers : a Dive Bomber Pilot's Epic Story of the Carrier Battles
New York Orion Books 1991 0517577941 / 9780517577943 First Edition Hardcover Very Good in Very Good dust jacket
Xx, 348 pages, 8 plates, cloth, DJ, very good. Stated first edition. From the dust jacket: "Screaming down in near-vertical dives, through enemy fighters and burst of flak, to deliver their bombs with lethal accuracy onto a zigzagging ship or perhaps a crucial ground target - this was the job of naval dive-bomber pilots in World War II. Harold Buell, who served aboard the aircraft carriers Yorktown, Saratoga, Enterprise, and Hornet, is representative of those pilots. Remarkably, Buell was involved in all five of the great carrier-versus-carrier battles of the pacific war: Coral Sea, Midway, Eastern Solomons, Santa Cruz, and Philippine Sea. He is the only carrier pilot alive today known to have survived all those encounters. "; 348 pages
