A daring literary and historical look at the ideologies of war and violence, by the author of Exterminate All the BrutesOn November 1, 1911, over the North African oasis Tagiura, Lieutenant Giulio Cavotti leaned out of the cockpit of his primitive aircraft and, dropping a Haasen hand grenade, initiated one of the twentieth centurys most devastating military tactics: aerial bombing.The bomb shatters history into hundreds of fragments scattered throughout time in this fascinating book from Sven Lindqvist, author of the acclaimed Exterminate All the Brutes. More than just a history, it is an overview and interrogation of the cultural and political dimensionsand the devastating effectsof war from above. Forming a labyrinth of events that illustrates the genocidal fantasies underlying so much conflict and the devastation wrought by aerial bombing, A History of Bombing links the total war of World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War with centuriespast colonial warfare.Mining such diverse topics as military history and strategy, the evolution of international law, turnofthecentury science fiction, and the civilian experience during wartime, Lindqvist has produced a rich meditation on the past and the future of human conflict.
