H6K "MAVIS" / H8K "EMILY" VS PB4Y-1/2 LIBERATOR / PRIVATEER: Duel 126
The author details how the PB4Y-1 and PB4Y-2 crews tracked down and defeated the H6K "Mavis" and K8K "Emily" flying boats. These combats represented a clash of doctrines and technology, pitting leading land-based heavy bombers re-roled for long-range patrolling against what was, in the "Emily," arguably the finest flying boat of WWII. Fully illustrated some in color.
