Reviews

Tom Cleaver’s account of the Fifteenth Air Force in its effort to disrupt the Luftwaffe’s access to oil supplies is an epic tale… It brings to life the thrills, dangers, and, ultimately, a tsunami of action worthy of Twelve O’Clock High. * Captain Roy Cash Jr., USN (Ret.) * Bloody Skies expertly tells the story of the Fifteenth Air Force, known as ‘The Forgotten Fifteenth’ due to its overshadowed role in the Mediterranean Theater. Thomas Cleaver is a master storyteller with the superb knack of laying out a strategic vision on one page and bringing to life the exhilaration and terror of air combat on the next. * James R. Benn, author of A Bitter Wind and other Billy Boyle World War II Mysteries *
