Has anyone read Bradley's book for comparison with the movie?

I started his newer work, Flyboys, last night. It's about the little-known action on Chichi Jima, and follows the lives of several navy airmen who were shot down over that island, captured, and later murdered by the Japanese.
One pilot, Lt. (j.g.) George Bush, landed at sea and was rescued by the U.S.S. Finback.
