Book Review of Baa Baa Black Sheep

Baa Baa Black Sheep
mikej avatar reviewed on + 73 more book reviews


Interesting book in that it was written in 1958... so Col Boyington's views are still fresh and also unencumbered by today's political correctness. He also writes as if we are very aware of his post war troubles with alcohol and the law, like he is giving his side of the story that we have all heard before. The last third of the book covers his battle with post war alcoholism, if you are looking for a aviation centered book or the hijinks the the TV Black Sheep got away with, this is not the book for you.
