But Tiger Joe is more than a book about combat aviation. A gifted amateur photographer, Thompson took hundreds of pictures during his four years of military service. Tiger Joe is a photographic diary of Thompson's remarkable journey through World War II, taking us both behind-the-scenes and on the front lines, and allowing us to gaze into the human face of war.
