This book is a study of all aspects of air defense from its
beginnings during the French Revolution when artillery gunners
tried to hit primitive balloons with their cannons to the use of
Patriot missiles in the Gulf War to shoot down tactical ballistic
missiles. Crabtree's history focuses on the development of tactics
and technology from the Franco-Prussian War to the present. The
strategic air defense of World War I and World War II are featured,
as are the development of surface-to-air missiles by Germany in
World War II and by the United States and the USSR in Vietnam and
the Middle East.
