In these memoirs, Herbert Thompson reflects on the two great experiences of his life: as a young fighter pilot exhilarating in the challenges of flying in the First World War and later, in the service of the Raj. The book also includes a translation of the German WWI ace, Hans Waldhausen's memoirs. The two former combatants became friends later in life.
