by Owen D. "Cowboy" Roane

Close This Window

This remarkable book opens the door into the life of Owen D "Cowboy" Roane, who was a nineteen year old with a tough job to do and a tough aircraft to do it in. The respect he had for the B-17 flying fortress is matched and even surpassed by the respect he earned from all who knew him. Follow him through training and the friendships that lasted his lifetime, through his missions to his going home. Filled with facts and photos. A great read and highly recommended.

Relive the year Owen (Cowboy) Roane flew bombing missions during World War II as described in his autobiographical account of those missions and the training that led up to them.
