In honor of this week's 60th anniversary of the Berlin Airlift, the New York Times asked me to do something very cool and exciting. They put together a special page about the Berlin Airlift for which I provided the content. On this page, you will find a brief overview of the Airlift and blockade I wrote for them, a list of "Five Recommended Books" for those who want to learn more about this era, some links to great old newsreels, 15 articles from the Times Archives of 1948-49 that I selected as among the most interesting and noteworty, and a link to a Q&A the New York Times conducted with me about the Berlin Airlift and the candy bombers.

It's all the Candy Bombers news that's fit to post!
