For the extraordinary writer James Salter, this moment was contained in the fighter planes over Korea where, during his young manhood, he flew more than one hundred missions. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJames Salter is considered one of America's greatest prose stylists. \u003ci\u003eThe Arm of Flesh \u003c\/i\u003e(later revised and retitled \u003ci\u003eCassada\u003c\/i\u003e) and his first novel, \u003ci\u003eThe Hunters, \u003c\/i\u003eare legendary in military circles for their descriptions of flying and aerial combat. A former Air Force pilot who flew F-86 fighters in Korea, Salter writes with matchless insight about the terror and exhilaration of the pilot's life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Counterpoint LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/10\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781593760793\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.90h x 5.00w x 0.50d","brand":"James Salter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44916258439349,"sku":"9781593760793","price":13.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_c8cd8394-a094-4469-a5a0-a9b4a7a2c685.jpg?v=1734449664","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/gods-of-tin-the-flying-years-9781593760793","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
