Description: In this book the author tells the story of the air war over Arras, using the voices of the men who were actually there: tales from survivors shot down by the 'Red Baron' himself, descriptions of frenzied dogfights and of dramatic crash landings. He covers every aspect of a First World War aviator's life, from his inadequate training in England to the defining moment in a dogfight, thousands of feet above the earth. All this is put firmly into the context of the Battle of Arras as a whole and the overall framework of the Allied strategy for 1917. Hard cover, black & white photographs. Slight storage stains.Brand new, unused condition.
