“Don’t pass up Douglas Waller’s
riveting read about the legendary Billy
Mitchell, whose rebellion captivated a
nation.”
--Senator John McCain
“Billy Mitchell—father of
the United States Air Force—springs
to life in this candid personal biography
as a colorful, complex trailblazer. Douglas
Waller has researched Mitchell’s
flamboyant life meticulously and the marvelous
result is A Question of Loyalty.
Focusing keenly on the courtroom drama
of Mitchell’s court-martial, this
fascinating and intimate portrait shows
Mitchell as he evolves from daring aviator
and war hero to infamous and outspoken
military critic.”
--Douglas Brinkley, author of Tour
of Duty
“Buy this and get ready to hang
on to your seats! A gripping true-life
trial. I loved it.”
--Greta Van Susteren, anchor of Fox
News Channel’s On the Record
“Douglas Waller has rediscovered
one of the classic Washington moments—a
political scandal, a courtroom drama in
the Roaring Twenties—featuring a
classic hero/rogue: General Billy Mitchell.
This is not just great fun, it’s
also—literally—as fresh and
relevant as this morning’s paper.”
--Joe Klein, Time magazine columnist
and author of Primary Colors
“Douglas Waller’s biography
of General Billy Mitchell combines the
adventure of aviation with the suspense
of a court-martial of huge proportions
and a debunking of myths that surround
the legend of airpower. It is history
presented in a way that grips the reader,
a book that once you start to read it,
you can’t put it down.”
--General Charles A. Horner, U.S. Air
Force (Retired)
