'This is a book everyone should read. It is the autobiography of an
ace, and no common ace either. The boy had all the noble tastes and
qualities, love of beauty, soaring imagination, a brilliant
endowment of good looks ...this prince of pilots ...had a charmed
life in every sense of the word' - George Bernard ShawSent to
France with the Royal Flying Corps at just seventeen, and later a
member of the famous 56 Squadron, Cecil Lewis was an illustrious
and passionate fighter pilot of the First World War, described by
Bernard Shaw in 1935 as 'a thinker, a master of words, and a bit of
a poet'. In this vivid and spirited account the author evocatively
sets his love of the skies and flying against his bitter experience
of the horrors of war, as we follow his progress from France and
the battlefields of the Somme, to his pioneering defence of London
against deadly night time raids.
