Reviews
Exceptionally well organized and presented, Building the B-17 Flying Fortress: A Detailed Look at Manufacturing Boeing's Legendary World War II Bomber in Original Photos is an inherently fascinating and comprehensive historical study and one that is especially and unreservedly recommended for personal, professional, community, college, and university library 20th Century American Military Aviation collections in general, and B-17 Flying Fortress reading lists in particular., Those already well familiar with the history of this extraordinary aircraft might wonder at the need for yet another book on the topic, but anyone familiar with the existing literature will quickly recognize that the attention to detail here is unparalleled. Its authority and illustrative value makes Building the B-17 Flying Fortress a standout reference for a variety of holdings., Hundreds of factory-original, close-up photos and illustrations compliment reproductions of original Boeing drawings and an in-depth explanation that no other B-17 coverage can claim. Its authority and illustrative value makes Building the B-17 Flying Fortress a standout reference for a variety of holdings., Well-trodden ground, you think. Been there/done that, you think. Turns out, there is more to be said and, especially, shown. While the operational and engineering histories are indeed plentiful, the actual bolting together of the apparatus on the shop floor had not yet been exhaustively documented. Making books that are small punch above their weight range is a special skill; Yenne has it.

Synopsis
This new book reveals rare original photos and full manufacturing details of America's greatest multi-engine combat aircraft flown in World War II. Contents cover building the Flying Fortress from wingtip to wingtip and from the bombardier's Perspex nose to the tail-gunner's twin-Browning cannons. Significant aspects of B-17 production include exterior views of each model variant from various angles, all crew stations in each B-17 type (including the entire flight deck), defensive gun turrets used in every B-17 model, fuselage interiors, exteriors, engines, nacelles, and even control surfaces. Factory-original color cutaway drawings as well as reproductions of original specifications sheets and other information-packed documents created by manufacturers during the 1940s are also included for the reader. As a research asset, the book's appendices feature a detailed survey of every production block of the 12,731 B-17 bombers produced during the war in an unbelievable time span of only three-and-a-half year--an industrial phenomenon unlike any the world had ever seen. What sets this book apart from all others in the crowded B-17 field is literally hundreds of factory-original close-up detailed photographs and illustrations accompanied by comprehensive high-resolution reproductions of original Boeing drawings, and all are explained in detailed yet easy to understand descriptive text. This book provides valuable data for the serious Boeing B-17 aficionado as well as a compelling story of America's aircraft manufacturing prowess for the dedicated aviation enthusiast., This book features photos and manufacturing details of America's greatest multi-engine World War II combat aircraft and tells the compelling story of how more than 12,000 B-17s were built.
