Description

Roald Dahl recounts his experiences as a fighter pilot in Africa during World War II. In 1938, fresh out of school, he joined the RAF, hoping for adventure abroad. Instead, he found himself at the centre of a world of danger and excitement.

Dahl's account of his time in Africa is a vivid and unsettling portrayal of life as a fighter pilot. He recounts crashing a plane in the Western Desert, being rescued from horrific injuries in Alexandria, and flying a Hurricane as Greece fell to the Germans.
