Originally published by the Air University at Maxwell Air Force Base, General Momyer's personal memoirs provide a variety of unique perspectives. "What I offer in this book, as fairly and as clearly as I can, is an account of the way airpower looked to me from the perspectives I think will matter most to airmen. I don't record these views in the hope that airmen, even my friends, will approve them. In fact I hope that all of our airmen who examine them will do so critically. We mustn't rely entirely upon yesterday's ideas to fight tomorrow's wars, after all, but I hope our airmen won't pay the price in combat again for what some of us have already purchased."
