Wings of Judgment: American Bombing in World War II

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Schaffer, Ronald, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, World War II--"the good war"--is here viewed from a new angle of vision, one that sheds fresh light on how major decisions were reached. More than just a book on the strategy ong>andong> outcome of American bombing in World War II, Wings of Judgment tells about choices in war, decisions that determined whether hundreds of thousong>andong>s of people lived or died ong>andong> whether famous cities ong>andong> great monuments of civilization survived or were destroyed. It is about the bombing of Dresden ong>andong> Berlin ong>andong> of dozens of cities ong>andong> towns all over Germany ong>andong> about the preservation of Rome ong>andong> Florence.

It also tells of American efforts to avoid killing civilians needlessly. Taking us behind the scenes at military headquarters, Schaffer shows that even the toughest warriors occasionally found themselves offering moral arguments for their actions, arguing that they were made right by enemy atrocities, by the justness of the Allied cause, ong>andong> by the numbers of lives of American servicemen that Allied bombing might save.
