Awesome book. Especially enjoyed as an adiobook that read like a radio program with audio interviews and snips from other recorded audio sources. It was very well done and interesting.
This up next! With audio dramatizations🙌🏾🙌🏾🎧
Great on audio with Gladwell narrating and back ground music and old interviews!
I‘m a big Malcolm Gladwell‘s work & his voice is so great for audio books. My husband‘s grandfather was a SeaBee & photographer during WWII. He was located off the coast of Japan, Guam. He was one of the photographers that went up to take photos for reconnaissance missions. After listening to Gladwell discuss the bombing of cities in Japan I realized these were the photos he probably took (the family has a metal box full of photos that he took
I'm not a fan of military/war strategy history books, but I'm huge fan of Malcolm Gladwell's writing and genius of showing the relationship between seemingly unrelated things. And this was a most fascinating read.
Even though the book doesn't take place in Alabama, the Bomber Mafia was based at Maxwell Field in Montgomery, so, yay #Alabama for #BooksByState2023 😁
We‘ve been together for five years and my husband finally bought me a book! He‘s active duty Air Force, but between growing up in the AF, active duty, and reserves, I‘ve spent the last 41 years around the Air Force. The inscription is hilarious and includes all kinds of cliches we‘ve endured while serving together.
Interesting story of how Air Force group wanted to make war less lethal and how it did not turn out that way.
