    Just completed: "THUNDERBOLT!" by Robert S. Johnson, 1959, 257 pages.

    Having reached his maximum allowable flight hours, Johnson was returned to the USA in June 1944. At that time he was the leading U.S. fighter ace in the ETO, with 28 aerial victories. This story begins with his desire to become a flyer at age eight.

    Go Like Hell by AJ Baime

    It's the story of Ford and Carroll Shelby developing the GT40 to fight Ferrari at Le Mans and the book that the movie Ford v Ferrari was based on.

    It's really good.

    These graphic novels were read some time ago but I thought I would gather them in one post to showcase them all.

    The illustrations make all the difference, the stories are fascinating.
