The Chaco War 1932–1935 & The Chaco Air War 1932–35 – 2-Book Bundle brings together two complementary studies of one of South America’s most important modern conflicts.
The Chaco War 1932–1935 provides a concise history of the war between Bolivia and Paraguay, covering the political background, military build-up, mobilisation, major battles, commanders, tactics and casualties. It also examines the contrasting military approaches of Bolivia’s General Hans Kundt and Paraguay’s José Félix Estigarribia, whose methods ultimately proved decisive.
The Chaco Air War 1932–35 focuses on the conflict in the air, where military aviation was used extensively for reconnaissance, bombing, ground support and aerial combat. It details the organisation of both air forces, pilot training, aircraft procurement, dogfights and bombing missions, including aircraft, crews and outcomes.
Illustrated with rare photographs, specially commissioned maps and colour profiles, these two volumes together provide a comprehensive account of the Chaco War on both the ground and in the air.
