Tumult in the Clouds: The Centenary Collection

Marking the 100th anniversary of the Royal Air Force's creation, this collection of six classic books tells the story of the RAF's first century. Among them is the remarkable true story of James Goodson, an American pilot who joined the RAF in 1939 and flew some of the most iconic aircraft of the Second World War.

Goodson's war began with the sinking of the SS Athenia, and he quickly signed on with the RAF. He flew Spitfires with an RAF Eagle Squadron and later joined the Fourth Fighter Group, becoming known as 'King of the Strafers' behind the controls of Thunderbolts and Mustangs. This book is a thrilling account of aerial dogfights and the stories of other heroic pilots.
