The North American B-25 Mitchell was one of the premier U.S. warplanes of World War II. It gained immortality early in the United States’ involvement in the war when a small group of B-25Bs under Lt. Col. Jimmy Doolittle took off from the deck of the USS Hornet and executed a surprise attack on military targets on the Japanese island of Honshu. Subsequently, Mitchells would see service in every U.S. theater of war, doing duty as a tactical bombers, coastal patrol aircraft, photo-reconnaissance and photo-mapping planes, and, when fitted with additional guns and rockets, as a superb ground- or shipping-attack platforms. The U.S. supplied B-25s to the British Royal Air Force and to the Soviet Union, which flew them against the Nazis on the Eastern Front. Through period photographs and detailed information, the career of the Mitchell is covered from the experimental NA-40 prototype to the final production B-25J model. U.S. Marine Corps PBJ versions are also chronicled. Eight all-new pages of photos and information fill out this latest version of Squadron’s B-25 Mitchell in Action. Illustrated with 225 photographs, more than 80 of them rare period photos in original color, plus color profiles and detailed line drawings; 80 pages. Hardcover ISBN = 978-0-89747-721-5. Paperback ISBN = 978-0-89747-625-6
