This lovely 1961 reprint of "Dick Bong: Ace of Aces" by General George C. Kenney is housed in its original black dustjacket featuring a black and white photograph of Bong. Bound in black buckram with red ink lettering to the spine, this hardback book has 116 pages of text supplemented by stunning contemporary black and white photographs. Within these pages, the reader is treated to the inspiring story of a boy from Poplar, Wisconsin who became the "the ruler of the air from New Guinea to the Philippines", the bravest of the brave, and the ace of aces.This copy is in very good condition - though the edges of the dustjacket are bumped and thus can only be described as good, the book itself has been remarkably well preserved and remains clean and readable. "Dick Bong: Ace of Aces" is looking for a new home and would make for the perfect gift for any aviation enthusiast.
