Originally published in 1995 as American Airpower Biography: A Survey of the Field and revised in 1997, Airmen and Air Theory updates the original material, reviewing new studies of prominent American airmen and adding sketches of five subjects: James V. Hartinger, Charles A. Horner, Lauris Norstad, Dale O. Smith, and George E. Stratemeyer. Colonel Meilinger has also included a substantial section, "The Historiography of Airpower Theory and Doctrine," originally published in The Journal of Military History. This new version will prove valuable to researchers in their quest for good sources on people who have shaped airpower and airpower theory.

Reviews and reader comments:


“Although . . . a reprint of two earlier [version], it would be a mistake to dismiss this highly useful . . . bibliography as merely a warmed over remake.” Reviewed by I. B. Holley Jr. in Air Power History Winter 2003.
