B-26 Marauder Walk Around
(Paperback)
SS25069

by David Doyle.

From bombardier's station to the pads for the tail gunner's
knees, this all-new B-26 Walk Around explores the Marauder
up-close and in detail, surveying the intricacies of Martin's
WWII medium bomber in depth. Exclusive photos illustrate the
rarely seen inner workings and outer features of the B-26G, with
additional coverage of the B-26, B-26B, and B-26C. Initially
dubbed "the Widowmaker" due to its high wing loading and high
landing speeds. But following refinements in the design and
improved crew training, the B-26 ended the war with the lowest
loss rate of any USAAF bomber. The B-26 Marauder saw service in
Europe, the Mediterranean and the Pacific, including use by the
United States, the Free French, the Royal Air Force and the South

African Air Force. More than 220 photographs, plus numerous
detailed line drawings and color profiles.
