The Bomber Mafia is about all of the minds that met up to come up with the bomber planes that did so much work during World War II. The planes had to be designed, produced, and outfitted. Strategies for bombing runs, and precision bombing had to be thought up and tested out. Without these planes and the people behind them, World War II would have looked very different at the conclusion. It was interesting to read about the way they came up with it, though this writing style left a lot to be desired for me. I'm not sure if it was the formatting, the storytelling, or the fact that it was put together like a series of blog posts or a serial editorial, but I just wasn't really a fan. I have nothing negative to say about the research or information presented though, which is why I rated it a three star.

This book was recommended on a World War II page that I follow. I had every intention of buying this, but I found it at the library while my girls were doing a summer reading program activity, so I just checked it out. I am glad I didn't buy it, or I would be more disappointed.
