There have been several other good books on the US Navy and Marines air war during the Korean War. Compared with two of the best books, this book rates a "4", which is the result of two critiques regarding the content of the book (especially when compared to two older American published books covering the same subject).The book is organized into 19 short chapters, including the final "The War Assessed", plus a very short (and incomplete Bibliography) and Index. The chapters are essentially chronological, except those covering the US Marine Corps (Ch. 14, mostly).The book essentially begins with Ch. 2 Revolt of the Admirals, in which the author spares no criticism of former-US Secretary of Defense Louis Johnson (as a political statement, I would suggest he was the worst SecDef since creation of the cabinet position). Arrogant, ego driven, Secretary Johnson even thought he would be the presidential successor to President Truman! As to final paragraph in this chapter is wroth quoting: "The day before he left office as Secretary of defense, Johnson mad reference to William Shakespeare's Macbeth in his final speech: When the jurly burly's done and the battle is won, I trust the historians will find my record of performance creditable, my service honest and faithful commensurate with the trust that was placed in me and in the best interests of peace and our national defense." To date, no historian has come to that conclusion regarding Louis Johnson." [end quote]The remaining chapters to Ch. 19 are a textual record of the endless number of carrier deployment and bombing missions aimed at suppression of the initial North Korean Army (KPA) invasions of the South, holding the line at Pusan Perimeter, the next two-plus years of interdiction (Operation Strangle and other less notable, daily attempts at destroying both interdiction and North Korean industrial capability), and operations that involved the US Air Force in this campaign. Chapter 14 takes the reader to the night air campaign, both in support of Air Force B-29 bombing missions, eliminating the pesky "Bedcheck Charlie" flights of Po-2 biplanes, and successes in night interdiction by Navy pilots. Chapter 17 is focused on the USMC aviators and their incredible success at close air support (CAS) in support of their fellow Marines.Chapter 19 The War Assess (3.5 pages) is wholly inadequate for a air campaign this complex, diverse, etc. The most effective conclusion is this: "......the employment of carrier air power in a "strategic" sense was ultimately only successful in Korea in limiting the enemy's ability to build up their front-line strength."The author also writes: "As far as the air power in the Korean War is concerned, the facts are that outside of the Pyongyang strikes by VALLEY FORGE and TRIUMPH, and the close air support provided by naval and Marine aviators during the battles in the Pusan Perimeter, turning back the Chinese in 1951 and holding the lines at the end of the war , UN air power did not place a decisive role in the outcome of the war as it had in World War II." Accurate and the one reached by several other writers on the subject in the past.This review could have been rated a "5" but for the abbreviated Bibliography, which does not represent any where near all the sources used to derive the books text, evident from the pilot narratives, the quoting in the text of historical studies not listed in the biblio, etc. etc.The book is something of a mix between the (Prof.) Richard Hallion's THE NAVAL AIR WAR IN KOREA and the more personal narrative of pilots and others, in Warren E. Thompson's NAVAL AVIATION IN THE KOREAN WAR, Aircraft, Ships, and Men. The latter is particularly useful for its Appendices (that includes a full record of aircraft losses and enemy aircraft shot down). Warren T. has also written extensively on pilot experiences in professional journals (and, it would appear this book has drawn on some of these narratives).This reviewer would love to have given the new Osprey Publishing title a "five", but it just does not stand at the same level as the above two book titles published in pats years.
