Description

Alan C. Deere's autobiography is a gripping account of his experiences as New Zealand's most famous RAF pilot during World War II.

From the Munich Crisis to the invasion of France in 1944, Deere recounts the drama and tension of the early days of the Battle of Britain, including his own miraculous escapes from stricken aircraft on multiple occasions. His remarkable story also includes a harrowing experience being blown up by a bomb while taking off from Hornchurch.

Deere's distinguished flying career culminated in him becoming Wing Commander of the Biggin Hill Wing and achieving an impressive score of 22 confirmed victories, ten probable victories, and eighteen damaged aircraft. His remarkable story is one of survival, skill, and determination.
