Angels On Our Shoulders: World War II B-29 Superfortress by Edward F. Heiberger.  The Commemoratiev Air Force was in Madison recently.  We went to see some planes but had to stand in line about one hour to do a walkthrough of a B-24.  The B-29 came in to land as we were waiting.  Max Hastings's book Retribution: the Battle for Japan, 1944-1945 said the B-29s had all sorts of trouble because the plane was rushed into service.
