Take to the skies over Europe during World War I as ace fighter plane pilots engage in battle with primitive machines that are held together with canvas, wire, wood, and metal. These adventurers, who were drawn to the conflict, came from as far afield as India, Canada, New Zealand and South Africa, would fight to defend their homeland, fight for nationalistic pride, and fight for personal glory.
Based on historical facts and well researched, each individual pilot's story is thrillingly told in this volume series that serves both as an astonishing read and a fitting tribute to courage, audacity and sacrifice; capturing the kinetic mayhem of the dogfight while briskly illuminating life on the ground on and off the base. Each story becoming much more than the number of victories scored, as vital as that might have been to the final outcome of the war.
?VOLUME TWO features the true exploits of Italy's Francesco Baracca, France's Rene Fonck, and Belgium's Willy Coppens.
