About the Book (Excerpts & Info)

Like a cat with nine lives, CDR Clayton Fisher, a Navy carrier pilot, narrowly escaped death time after time. His love of flying began in childhood, starting with rides in barnstorming biplanes and a blimp, continuing on into the Battle of Midway, where he was a dive bomber pilot during the greatest naval battle in U.S. history.

He flew in the initial flight of dive bombers attacking Japanese aircraft carriers in the Battle of Santa Cruz in the South Pacific where his ship, the USS Hornet, was sunk. Later during the Korean War he flew 80 combat bombing missions over North Korea in the famous Corsair fighter off the USS Essex during 1951 and 1952.

Fisher's dramatic tales of life as a flight student, later as a dive bomber and fighter instructor, come to life vividly in HOOKED.

Deftly constructed at 245 pages, Hooked: Tails & Adventures of a TAILHOOK WARRIOR is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the Aviation - History category. With U.S. wholesale distribution through Ingram and Baker & Taylor, and pervasive online availability through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and elsewhere, Hooked meets consumer demand through both retail and library markets with a suggested retail price of $15.95 and $29.95, respectively.

Additionally, Hooked can be ordered by retailers or wholesalers for the maximum trade discount price set by the author in quantities of ten or more from the Outskirts Press wholesale online bookstore at www.outskirtspress.com/buybooks
