About the Author :
John Thow is the author of WINGS LIKE EAGLES, a visual and narrative journey through the evolution of military aviation from its earliest days through the end of World War II. His lifelong passion for flight shines through in every photograph and illustration, capturing not only the airplanes themselves but also the people and stories behind them. As a lifelong aviation photographer and illustrator, John has spent decades documenting the aircraft, crews, and airfields that capture the spirit and evolution of military aviation. Through his studio, J. Thow Designs, he creates original artwork and high-impact visuals for posters, books, magazines, apparel, commemorative prints, and more. He combines traditional illustration techniques with modern digital tools, producing images known for their sharp detail, dynamic composition, and emotional depth. His work offers viewers a front-row seat to the excitement of flight. John's work is grounded in hands-on experience and a practiced eye, refined over years of photographing airshows, military exercises, and historic aircraft across the country. His photography goes beyond simple documentation; each image tells a story. From the silhouette of a B-25 Mitchell banking over the Pacific to the quiet dignity of a Stearman biplane resting in a hangar, illuminated by the early morning sun, his work highlights the enduring connection between aviation and the special people who continue to "Keep 'em Flying." In WINGS LIKE EAGLES, John invites readers to experience the beauty, power, and legacy of flight through a curated collection of images and personal insight. He offers a glimpse into the awe, history, and emotion that have fueled his lifelong love for aviation.
