Krátký popis
In the years before the Second World War, in a sleepy air force
base in central Alabama, a small group of renegade pilots put forth
a radical idea. What if we made bombing so accurate that wars could
be fought entirely from the air? What if we could make the brutal
clashes between armies on the ground a thing of the past? This book
tells the story of what happened when that dream was put to the
test. The Bomber Mafia follows the stories of a reclusive Dutch
genius and his homemade computer, Winston Churchill's forbidding
best friend, a team of pyromaniacal chemists at Harvard, a
brilliant pilot who sang vaudeville tunes to his crew, and the
bomber commander, Curtis Emerson LeMay, who would order the
bloodiest attack of the Second World War. In this tale of
innovation and obsession, Gladwell asks: what happens when
technology and best intentions collide in the heat of war? And what
is the price of progress?
