Baroness Kunigunde von Richthofen originally published Mein
Kriegstagebuch (My War Diary) in 1937, at a time when tales of
heroes of the First World War inspired the youth of a country being
prepared for a second war. Mother of Eagles is the culmination of
the translation of the war diary, along with numerous facts and
information not included in the original work. Follow the youth and
wartime exploits of Manfred and Lothar, the leading German aces of
World War I, through the eyes of their mother and a nation. Letters
to the Barronness from each of her sons intially depict the wartime
conditions on the ground, and then evolve into vivid details about
the exhiliration of the hunt in the air for ever increasing numbers
of enemy planes. This book will not only appeal to those interested
in the Red Baron and his ace brother, Lothar, but to anyone who is
interested in reading of the civilian life in Germany during the
Great War.
