Overall, an attractive copy. ; 7¾" - 9¾" Tall; 238 pages; An engaging account of the author's early life up to and including his conversion from atheism to theoc…racy to Christianity. In the Preface Lewis says: "The story is, I fear, suffocatingly subjective; the kind of thing I have never written before and shall probably never write again. I have tried so to write the first chapter that those who can't bear such a story will see at once what they are in for and close the book with the least waste of time.".

Front cover is decorated and had gilt lettering. Front cover clearly states THIS IS NOT A REPRINT. No dust jacket present. Cover has slight wear and soiling. P…rinted largely in a two-column format. From 1942-44 the 90th Bombardment Group flew Consolidated B-24 Liberators to bomb Japanese targets, operating from Australia and then New Guinea. It was awarded two United States Distinguished Unit Citations and the Philippine Presidential Unit Citation for its combat service in China, the Netherlands East Indies, New Guinea, the Bismarck Archipelago, Leyte, and Luzon. It was inactivated in the Philippines in early 1946. This is the story of the first unit to take the almost untried B-24 into action in the Southwest Pacific. From 1942 until the Japanese surrendered 34 months later, the 90th Bomb Group relentlessly carried the war to the enemy across vast expanses of featureless ocean and trackless jungle and through some of the world's most treacherous weather. Often in their own words, this is the story of the men who flew those missions, and of those who labored below so that they could be flown. The group was first organized as the 90th Bombardment Group at Key Field, Mississippi in April 1942 as a Consolidated B-24 Liberator unit. The group's original squadrons were the 10th Reconnaissance Squadron and the 319th, 320th and 321st Bombardment Squadrons, although within a week of activation the 10th was renamed the 400th Bombardment Squadron. The group trained with Liberators in the southeastern United States under III Bomber Command until August. The group moved to Willow Run Airport, Michigan for conversion training on newly manufactured Ford Liberators. Assigned to VII Bomber Command with B-24Ds, The unit moved to Hickam Field, Hawaii in September. The group arrived in northern Queensland, Australia in November 1942 and began bombardment missions under V Bomber Command almost immediately. The group attacked enemy airfields, troop concentrations, ground installations and shipping in New Guinea, the Bismarck Archipelago, Palau and the southern Philippines. The group was awarded a Distinguished Unit Citation for operations in Papua through January 1943, The unit participated in the Battle of Bismarck Sea in March 1943, and earned another citation for strikes on enemy airfields at Wewak, New Guinea in September 1943 despite heavy flak and fighter opposition. During 1944, the 90th supported the New Guinea Campaign through the end of June, then made long-range raids on oil refineries at Balikpapan, Borneo, in September and October. In January 1945, the group moved to the Philippines and supported ground forces on Luzon, attacked industrial targets on Formosa, and bombed railways, airfields, and harbor facilities on the Asiatic mainland. Shortly before the end of the war in the Pacific, the 90th moved to Okinawa, from which it would be able to strike the Japanese home islands. After VJ Day, the group flew reconnaissance missions over Japan and ferried Allied prisoners of war from Okinawa to Manila. Ceased operations by November 1945. The group was inactivated in the Philippines in early 1946. Lithography by Procolor. (illustrator).
