Description
Arthur Gould Lee's account of life as a fighter pilot at the front is a riveting and thought-provoking read. Thanks to a broken leg during flight school, he gained valuable additional time flying trainers before being posted to France during World War I.
Lee recounts his experiences in vivid detail, sharing stories of low-level bombing and strafing attacks, as well as the 222 hours of flight time he accumulated over 118 patrols. His account is both humorous and dramatic, offering a unique insight into life as a fighter pilot at the front.
This book is a testament to Lee's remarkable story, one that has been praised for its clarity and insight. With its engaging narrative and historical significance, it is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in World War I history or aviation.
