The thrilling story behind the pilots secretly recruited to defend America''s desperate Chinese allies.
Sam Kleiner''s Flying Tigers tells the story of the group young American men and women who crossed the Pacific before Pearl Harbor to risk their lives defending the embattled forces of Chiang Kai-Shek''s China. These 300 individuals were effectively paid mercenaries, secretly recruited by a mysterious shell company that the federal government had created to circumvent its official stance of non-intervention in the war. In his book Samuel Kleiner takes readers into the cockpits of their iconic shark-nosed planes as the Tigers perform nail-biting missions against the Japanese, destroying some 297 enemy aircraft in Burma, Thailand, and China.
