The Great War may be finished, but Bartholomew Bandy isn't. After
not quite succeeding in defeating communism in Russia, he's
returning to the New World when he meets shy, awkward Cissie
Chaffington, whose first glimmerings of interest in aviation appear
when she sends a cooked duck soaring through the ship's first-class
dining room. More than just terminal embarrassment stands in the
way of their happiness, however. Her father, for example, takes a
violent dislike to Bandy - even before Bandy blows up Cyril
Chaffington's hotel. And then who should turn up but the diminutive
Dasha, the former Bolshevik (sort of) nurse whom Bandy married
(sort of) in Russia, where she betrayed him (more or less) to the
mercy (or lack thereof) of the Red Cavalry. Between sorting all of
this out, carrying airmail, and trying to start his own aviation
business while dodging flappers and bootleggers, Bandy hardly has
time to be a silent movie star... This edition includes Banner's
Headline, a radio play by Donald Jack published here for the first
time. In it we discover what happens when Arthur Banner, a rocket
scientist, gets passed over for promotion one too many times, and
decides to resign to work on a project of his own.
