Angel A Mighty Fortress is a riveting war story about a B-17, Flying Fortress and its crew. It is also the story of five decades of unexplained mysteries.

Yet these very events, as explained in this story, reveal those things that have been hidden by this world.
This is a story of combat, friendship, grief, and tragedy. Angel is also a story of an ill fated love affair between two young, innocent people; yet theirs is a love which continues through the generations.
Fly with the crew as they take part in fifteen harrowing missions over the tormented skies of Europe during 1944. Know the families of the crew and the love they share with their sons.
We have no doubt this story will expand the possibilities of your life.

Angel A Mighty Fortress Leslie Barnett Don Gaddo 9780739203477 Books Reviews
- I met The author of book in Florida book was very good I think he wrote two other books they were good.
- Would make a fabulous movie!
- I enjoyed this book so much because you see my husband grew up with the author and we know or knew most of the people in the book personally! This book is an amazing story about WWII and the men and women who died for their country. We knew last summer that Don was writing this book when Sharon [Don's wife], and Don stopped to see us while in Illinois visiting with family and friends. We went out to dinner and while talking about old times and reminiscing Don told us of his search for information about his cousin, Lt. Joe Doglio. He told us of his stop at a Military Museum while on a vacation and how he found the information about the crew and the Angel and how he called the men who were still living to get the first hand accounts of the events that led to the death of the crew and the demise of the Angel. It was a heart wrenching story that needed to be told. We are forever grateful for their friendship and hope to be able to read a sequel to Angel some day soon!
- "Angel A Mighty Fortress" is a refreshing blend of WWII history and insight into the lives of the Angel crew...neither aspect dominating the other. It is novels like this that make people want to read about history...In part because they may not realize that is what they are doing. It is possible to walk away from this book aware you are touched by the tragic deaths...but unaware of the historical knowledge gained at the same time. It is also easy for younger generations, such as mine, to look at the WWII gneration as "them". People whos sacrifices are part of a time long gone. The personal accounts of this novel bing to light the fact that "they" are me, only a generation earlier. This novel is a work the soldiers, their familes and the authors can be proud of and that readers can use to connect to them.
- Angel a Mighty Fortress is the kind of book that has to be taken as just book full of miss information. I feel that he should have gotten his info correct. I have read the book that was written by the only man who Was blown out of the plane and live to tell the story.
I have seen pictures of the plane after it was shot down. I have seen the field 45 years later that still show the indention in the grond where it landed. Where did he get the info as the man who live never talked to Mr Gaddo. It was not till after his death did the book come out. That to me is sad as this man lived with this the rest of his life. You might like to know that Some of the men that went up on that last flight were not part of the original crew.
I just feel sad that Gaddo has taken part of someones life and called it his book. Shame on you Mr. Don Gaddo.
One more thing I would like to know where the "Angel" really came from ???? - Angel a Mighty Fortress is the kind of book that has to be read in one sitting---from the first word to the last, you will be enthralled with each member of the crew and the paths that their lives take. From each little mystery to the innocent yet powerful love affair, Don Gaddo and Leslie Barnett beautifully show the dichotomy between the tragedies and miracles of war. This book is one that should be in everyone's home library!
- I found Angel A Mighty Fortress to be a very enjoyable reading experience; one that brought me back years to other WWI books and adventures. It was fast-paced and read in one evening. It seemed that I became involved with the book and each of the families involved. Well done. A don't miss if you enjoy war stories that bring you into the hearts and homes of those involved.
- Angel is a book that you must read...you will not be able to put it down. It is a love story, a story of friendship, and a story of war and families all wrapped into one tight knit book. The characters will grab you and they will be in your lives forever. I cannot wait for a sequel!
