Know about the book -

Yanks Over Europe is written by Jerome Klinkowitz and published by University Press of Kentucky. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0813170605 (ISBN 10) and 9780813170602 (ISBN 13).

Contrasts between fighter combat and the bombers' war support Klinkowitz's belief that notions of the air war were determined by one's position in it. He extends his thesis by showing the vastly different style of air war described by veterans of the North African and Mediterranean campaigns and concludes by studying the effects of such combat on adversaries and victims. Air combat, Klinkowitz writes, offers a unique perspective on the nature of war. The experience of combat has inspired authors to combine exquisite descriptions with probing thoughtfulness, covering the full range of human expression from exultation to heartbreak. Here is a tightly drawn, highly readable account of the European air war.
