Five Historians Discuss "Masters of the Air"

In conjunction with the release of the highly-anticipated Apple TV+ series, Masters of the Air, VBC historian host Glenn Flickinger has created a 10-part livestream series that will recap and provide history discussion around each episode. Each week, Glenn will cover the action and background of the series in conversation with show producers and creators, air war historians, and family members of the real-life characters depicted in the series.

Masters of the Air is a streaming television miniseries by Stephen Spielberg and Tom Hanks based on the 2007 book Masters of the Air: America’s Bomber Boys Who Fought the Air War Against Nazi Germany by Donald L. Miller about the 100th Bomb Group of the 8th Air Force.

Glenn welcomes Steve Snyder, author of "Shot Down" and Colin Heaton, author of Above the Reich, Robert Ehlers, author of Targeting the Third Reich, and David and Margaret White, authors of Wings of War.
