Review:
Quite simply one of the best books I have ever read about the men who fought the war in the air. The few who became the many. It is funny, poignant, larky but always with the ring of appalling truth.A" The Daily Mail For sheer narrative power, it ranks with the best.A" Daily Telegraph Gripping reading...a remarkable tale of survival, but told with great candour and without a trace of self pity.A" British Aerospace News
