Review
"AIRCRAFT DOWN! covers a neglected area of WWII aviation history and covers it well. Although there have been other books on evaders, none have gone into so much detail, enabling the reader virtually to share the courage, fear, ingenuity, and luck of the downed airmen. Despite this detail, it is very readable and spiced with humor. Additionally, the willingness of the underground and the general population of the occupied areas to help the evaders at the risk of their own lives is inspiring. This is an excellent book, and I recommend it highly." Donald S. Lopez, deputy director, National Air and Space Museum
