For a small book, this volume contains an amazing amout of detail and first-person recall of the A-7 Corsair II flown by naval aviators during Viet Nam.
The book is easy to read, although the photographs (B&W) are quite small.
A good edition to anyone's Naval Aviation library.

Arriving on station with the USS Ranger (CVA-61) in early December 1967, the first Corsair II squadron became operational immediatedly and sustained its first combat loss three weeks later. This book tells how the A-7 soon proved its worth supporting ground operations in South Vietnam. As it continued to serve in the ground support role, the navy swiftly introduced the A-7E which soon ran into difficulties with supply lines - perhaps on account of what many perceived to have been a rushed introduction to service. Once these teething problems were resolved, the A-7E became the primary air-to-ground aircraft of the fleet.
