Cobra! is a comprehensive, meticulously researched and fully
documented history of Bell Aircraft Corporation and their piston
engine fighters built during the Great Depression and through World
War II. While the story centers on techincal aspects of the various
fighters, significant attention is also devoted to those key
individuals who conceived, built and flew these innovative designs.
In addition to aircraft development, Cobra! surveys the combat use
of the P-39 and P-63 fighters in the hands of American, French,
Italian, and Soviet pilots. The story continues after World War II
when a number of Bell surplus fighters were successfully modified
for air racing. Birch Matthews is also the author of Wet Wings
& Drop Tanks: Recollection of American Transcontinental Air
Racing 1928-1970, and Mustang: The Racing Thoroughbred(with Dustin
W. Carter). Both books are available from Schiffer Publishing
Ltd.).
