A professor of history at Auburn University in Alabama, William F. Trimble received his Ph.D. from the University of Colorado, Boulder. Professor Trimble's book, Attack from the Sea: A History of the U.S. Navy's Seaplane Striking Force, was published by the Naval Institute Press in 2005. His book, Admiral William A. Moffett: Architect of Naval Aviation, was reprinted in 2007 as one of the Naval Institute Press Bluejacket Books.
A number of new books on naval aviation have appeared in the last
few years for the centennial of U.S. naval aviation, which the Navy
will officially commemorate in 2011. Hero of the Air is among the
most important of them. Trimble offers an insightful analysis of
the Curtiss-Navy relationship that is essential reading for
aviation scholars.
