Description
Albert Ball VC: The Story of the 1st World War Ace The exploits of pilot Albert Ball during the First World War captivated the public imagination, earning him a reputation as one of the first 'celebrity' aces. His remarkable story is told in this meticulously researched account. Ball's flying career was marked by his tenacious approach to scouting and combat, often flying alone with a near-empty fuel tank. He accumulated an impressive score of 44 German aircraft destroyed before his tragic death. This book provides a compelling insight into the life and legacy of this remarkable pilot, who became an inspiration to those serving in the RFC at the time. Through meticulous research, Chaz Bowyer brings Albert Ball's story to life, shedding light on the experiences of one of the first fighter aces of the First World War.
