Documents the Great War's aerial combat, from machine inventors, to death-dealing bombers, to the flying aces…short profiles of all the aces; Max Immelmann, the first German; von Richthofen, and Boelcke. America had its Rickenbacker, the French four of lesser stature, Belgium a great balloon killer; etc., etc. Longstreet has worked in contemporary material, memoirs. There is also a certain indiscriminate supercargo: he refers twice in short succession to the long distance affair between Shaw and Ellen Terry which seems wide of the target to begin with. Nothing very alluring except for the congenital devotee -- and spotty notes, no index.
