Reader Review: The Bomber Mafia

Bomber Mafia by Malcolm Gladwell book coverThe Bomber Mafia” is a brief history of the American bomber squad during World War II. The author describes the changing techniques of aerial bombing from the early part of WWII to the very end of the war. This book was actually written to be an audiobook, so that is how I “read” it. The narrator is the author himself, and he used recorded interviews, music, and sound effects to help tell the story. It is an engaging audiobook, much more than any other audiobook I’ve listened to.

Three words that describe this book: History, aerial bombing, Japan.

You might want to pick this book up if: If you like to read about the Pacific theater in World War II, then this is the book for you.
