THE FIRST COMBAT BOMB IN WORLD WAR II Ron Mackay

• The content of this book has been established thanks to sound long-term research • The narrative style is both lucid and informative in its presentation • The written text is equally well supported by the range of photographs

This is a study of one of the 8th USAAF’s sub-units. The 1st Combat Bomb Wing (1CBW), created on 13 September 1943, was preceded first by the 1st Bomb Wing, and then the 101st Provisional Bomb Wing, which included the 91BG as an element. By then, the 91BG was joined by the 351BG and 381BG, with the 351BG later displaced by the 398BG. The operational experience of these units virtually spanned the entire 33 months of the “Mighty Eighth’s” existence and the often costly but finally successful campaign to deny Hitler’s the means with which to pursue its warped dreams of conquest.

TUPOLEV TU-4: The First Soviet Strategic Bomber Yefim Gordon, Dmitriy Komissarov, & Vladimir Rigmant

• The Tu-4, a reverse-engineered version of the B-29, was the first Soviet strategic bomber fielded in the late 1940s • Describes how the B-29 was copied and gives details of all Tu-4 versions, as well as operational use • Stalin: “All our aircraft that have fought the war must be scrapped, and the B-29 must go into production!”

After World War II, the and the USA, who had been allies in the war, started moving towards political and military confrontation. The Soviet Union urgently needed a strategic bomber capable of striking at the USA. Thus, the windfall of three battle- damaged B-29s forced to land in Soviet territory was most welcome. The Soviet Union kept them; a huge reverse-engineering effort ensued, resulting in a Soviet copy of the Superfortress (the Tu-4) and a technology boost to the Soviet aircraft and avionics industries. From then on, the “Soviet Superfortress” evolved independently, some of the Tu-4 versions having no direct U.S. equivalent. These included the Tu-4K missile carrier, a wing-to-wing flight refueling tanker, and the Tu-4T transport. The Tu-4A was the first Soviet nuclear-capable bomber. Experimental versions included engine testbeds, a towed program, and more. The book also describes the Tu-4’s production and service history (including service in —the only nation besides the USSR to operate the type) and touches on the Tu-4’s transport derivatives, the Tu-70 airliner, and the Tu-75 military airlifter. The book is illustrated with many color side views and hitherto unpublished photographs Yefim Gordon is an aviation journalist and photographer who has been researching Soviet/Russian aviation history for more than forty years. Dmitriy Komissarov is a translator and journalist whose work has been associated with aviation since 1993. Vladimir Rigmant started working in aviation engineering in 1963 and has been working for the Tupolev aircraft design bureau since 1986.

• The first detailed and complete history of the McDonnell F-101 Voodoo • Covers the Voodoo’s genesis during WWII: engineering, development, combat history • The world’s largest fighter in 1954, the F-101A was conceived to carry nuclear weapons

Conceived in the waning days of World War II as an escort for the mammoth Convair B-36 bomber, the McDonnell Model 36 “Voodoo” first took to the air in 1948. With advances in technology, aerial refueling, and miniaturized nuclear weapons, the Model 36 was recast as a fighter-bomber of unimaginable firepower: the F-101A Strategic Fighter. Overcoming tremendous developmental challenges, the Voodoo served into the late-1980s, nearly forty years after its maiden flight. As a nuclear strike aircraft, reconnaissance platform, and reliable high-performance interceptor, the McDonnell F-101 Voodoo carries the sole distinction among the famed “Century Series” fighters of serving in the most trouble spots, from the era of Eisenhower and Khrushchev through that of Reagan and Gorbachev, in the waning days of the . Based on hundreds of pages of recently declassified documents, this new work brings the Voodoo into its long-denied place in the limelight. Ronald Easley is a graduate of UC Davis and is a volunteer at the Museum of California in Sacramento, in charge of the F-101B in the museum collection. He is a U.S. Army veteran of the Iraq campaign.

WORLD WAR I QUILTS: The Eleventh Hour of the Eleventh Day Sue Reich of the Eleventh Month • The first study of World War I era quilts • Showcases the extraordinary effort and contribution on the homefront from children, wives and mothers of our soldiers who so valiantly served • Draws interest in both quilters and military historians

Quiltmaking in the 1910s can be best described as the convergence of the quilt styles of the late nineteenth century with the new innovations of the early twentieth century. One phenomenon of the era was the emergence of major entrepreneurial quilt designers and the exciting fresh look in quilts they contributed to the quilt world. Two catastrophic events in 1917 and 1918 interrupted the emergence of these new trends in quiltmaking. World War I, also referred to as the “Great War” and the 1918 Pandemic Flu, also known as “The Spanish Flu” brought hardship and death to America, and the entire world. Much of the quiltmaking from April 1917 to March 1919, was mostly focused solely on providing for our soldiers and the Red Cross. With their quiltmaking skills, women contributed thousands of quilts for one of the greatest benevolent efforts of the twentieth century. Sue Reich began her love of quilting as a child at her grandmother’s farmhouse in Northwestern Pennsylvania. Her interests expanded to historic documentation, appraising, lecturing and judging of quilts. As a nationally recognized author of six quilt history books, and the curator and keeper of focused quilt exhibits, Sue travels widely sharing her quilt research and knowledge.

In particular, the chapter on military revolvers is one of the most important sections of the book, beginning with the British government’s early purchase of Colt’s percussion weapon and concluding with the Webley Service revolvers, strikingly familiar to many who served in the in both World Wars. Finally, many of the guns are pictured here for the first time, a number having been photographed especially for this book. George Prescott has been writing and publishing upon a variety of subjects, including firearms, since 1993. He lives in , and currently writes about English weapons for Classic Arms & Militaria magazine, amongst other things.
