"Vivid detail...Womack's volume serves as fine companion piece to that of Dutch military historian Peter Boer, whose recently (2016) published account of the Dutch Army Air Force (KNIL-ML) side of the aerial campaign over the Indies provides similar detail on the progress of the Japanese advance through the Indies and the operations and fate of each of the ML's aircraft. ...the author is to be congratulated on a superb account that fills a gap in our understanding of the defense of the Netherlands Indies as experienced by the Dutch forces."--William H. Bartsch is the author of Every Day a Nightmare: American Pursuit Pilots in the Defense of Java, 1941-1942, "This book is doubtless the ultimate study on the subject... A solid addition to your history library."-- IPMS/USA Reviews, "Tom Womack has produced a really solid and meticulously researched piece of work that, in over 380 pages, achieves what he has set out to do--to ensure that the Dutch contribution in the NEI war is fully documented and recognized. I heartily recommend this book to anyone interested in finding out more about the conflict in the NEI and learning about the significant contribution that the Catalina played in it."--David Legg, editor, The Catalina News , The Catalina Society, "This excellent book provides the most complete account of the Royal Dutch Navy's battle against the Imperial Japanese forces in World War II in the Dutch East Indies. In addition to the in-depth historical research, the book is very well and extensively documented. The book is pleasant to read and beautifully designed. The stories about the crews struggle against an overwhelming enemy are fascinating. Special is the story of the last flight of flying boat X-29 and its crew. Their mission ended so tragically when port was in sight. Recommended in particular to dutch readers."--Michael Klaversteijn, retired captain of KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, "Since I contributed to this book with a number of illustrations, it is only natural that I am somewhat biased about the contents of this book. However, it is truly incredible how many facts the American author Tom Womack has managed to collect about the battle of the Dutch Naval Air Force, the MLD, in the former Dutch East Indies against the Japanese. Much has of course already been written about the battle in the Pacific with the Americans and English in the leading roles but in the second edition of this book the role of the MLD is explained in detail. And with many more new facts than in the first edition. Anyone who thinks that the book is a dry summary of facts is completely wrong. Yes, the author describes many previously unknown facts and events in great detail. But this happens in such a lively way that it never becomes boring. In short, the book is an interesting and very readable publication for anyone interested in the history of the Dutch Naval Air Force in the former Dutch East Indies leading up to and in the first months of the Second World War."--Jan Klootwijk, Den Helder, The Netherlands, author of De Grote Zeilvaart in Foto's, "Womack gives now for the first time in the English language an extensive and detailed account of this battle...excellent"-- Let Let Let Warplanes., "A great book that vastly improves the little understood war actions against the Japanese at the beginning of WW2 by the Dutch and their allies. Thank you for publishing this second edition. Great job!"--Bob Bergstrom, his father, Captain Edward W. Bergstrom, served with Patrol Wing 10 in the Philippines and Netherlands East Indies campaigns, "Eighty-some years after the fact, we are still learning about the Second World War, in all its global aspects. One neglected area, handsomely remedied in English by this book, is the role to the Netherlands East Indies Naval Air Service during the Japanese onslaught into the area we now call Indonesia. This book is doubtless the ultimate study on the subject, at least in English. ... Womack's second edition nearly doubles the page count of his earlier 2006 book. It profits by new information and interviews, and the addition of background on MLD (Naval Air Service) operations. ...the author provides unexpected historical pearls...strongly recommended...a solid addition to your history library"-- Jim Maas, author of F2A Buffalo in Action - Aircraft No. 81, Reviews of the first edition: "recommended reading...excellent"-- Stone & Stone Second World War Books, Reviews of the first edition: "recommended reading...excellent"-- Stone & Stone Second World War Books ; "very well written...run, don't walk to your nearest mail box to post your check to the publisher. You won't be disappointed"-- Small Airforces Observer ; "Womack gives now for the first time in the English language an extensive and detailed account of this battle...excellent"-- Let Let Let Warplanes., "very well written...run, don't walk to your nearest mail box to post your check to the publisher.
