The ultimate piston-engined heavy bomber of World War 2, the first production B-29s were delivered to the 58th Very Heavy Bomb Wing in the autumn of 1943. Indeed, the final dropping of two atomic bombs from the B-29 convinced the Japanese to sue for peace. By the spring of 1944 the Superfortress was bombing targets in the Pacific, and by war's end the aircraft had played as great a part as any weapon in ending the conflict with the Japanese.
This book traces the wartime career of the B-29, as the aircraft went from strength to strength in the Pacific Theatre.
