Above and Beyond: The Story of Jay Zeamer's Eager Beavers

by Clint Hayes

In his debut novel, Clint Hayes sets the record straight about America's most highly decorated aircrew, Jay Zeamer's Eager Beavers, bringing their incredible story to life with unparalleled authenticity and intimacy. Drawn from interviews of the Eager Beavers themselves, their squadron mates, and family members, personal diaries and correspondence, personnel files, and squadron diaries and morning reports, Above and Beyond corrects decades of myths and misconceptions, continuing even now, to tell the compelling true story of this singular crew and their part in the early, primitive effort to defend Australia from Japanese invasion.
