Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, first published in 1923, beautifully captures the exhilaration and dread of the first air service. Air warfare was in its infancy during the first World War, with pilots fighting in open cockpits, sometimes armed with little more than pistols. The death rate for airmen was shockingly high, with American air service casualties being more than 380 percent higher than for all other branches of the service. Yet this book also explores the thrill that came with the unprecedented freedom of the skies. The men who flew in that first generation of airplanes were pioneers, and the risks they took pale their modern counterparts. This book's exploration of their experiences is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of military aviation, or the human story of those who dared to take to the skies. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780243400669_0
