The book offers a detailed account of how the USAS evolved from its infancy to maturity, highlighting the challenges faced by the pioneers who shaped the air service into a formidable force that played a crucial role in the Allied victory.

В книге «America's First Eagles: The Official History of the US Air Service AEF 1917-1918» представлен всесторонний обзор первых лет существования воздушной службы США (USAS) во время Первой мировой войны. Книга предлагает подробный отчет о том, как USAS развивался от своего младенчества до зрелости, подчеркивая проблемы, с которыми сталкиваются пионеры, которые превратили воздушную службу в грозную силу, которая сыграла решающую роль в победе союзников. Автор, генерал-майор Уильям А. Ганоэ, был ветераном-пилотом и командиром 1-й группы преследования, и его личный опыт и знания привносят глубину и понимание в повествование. Книга начинается с введения в предвоенную авиационную сцену, описывающего развитие военных самолетов и ранние эксперименты с воздушной войной.

Несмотря на эти препятствия, американские пилоты продемонстрировали замечательную храбрость и мастерство, сбивая вражеские самолёты и заслужив похвалы от своих европейских коллег.
