Trade paperback. Condition: Very Good. Leonard wrote about his experiences growing up in Kenya and serving in the military during the Mau Mau rebellion. Leonard's childhood followed the lines of many small boys, getting into mischief and learning the ways of the world, but against the exotic backdrop of colonial East Africa. In…1950, Leonard returned from college in Ireland and went to work. The following year, the militant anti-British organization, the Mau Mau, launched a campaign against its political enemies. Leonard joined the Kenyan Police Reserve and within the year joined the Kenya Regiment. After completing his training he was assigned to the Kings African Rifles in 1953. Besides having to deal with the guerrilla tactics of his Mau Mau adversaries, Leonard also had to tackle extra-military situations such as poison arrows, charging rhinos and marauding elephant.

Paperback. Condition: New. 'I hold the greatest respect for Len for what he achieved in the RAF.' - Gordon Mitchell, son of Spitfire designer R.J. MitchellIn May 1940, 20-year-old Len Thorne joined the RAF, as did many young men during the Second World War. After two hectic tours of operational duty as a fighter pilot, including… some desperately dangerous low-level flying at Dunkirk, he was posted to AFDU (Air Fighting Development Unit) and remained there as a test pilot for the rest of the war.Fortunately for us, Len kept a detailed diary, which, set alongside his log book, tells the unique story of a test pilot tasked with developing operational tactics and testing captured enemy aircraft, such as the feared Fw 190. During Len's career, he worked alongside some of the most famous fighter aces and his records cast light on some of the most famous flyers of the RAF, including Wing Commander Al Deere and Spitfire aces Squadron Leader 'Paddy' Finucane, Ernie Ryder and many others.A unique record of military aviation history, From Spitfire to Focke Wulf offers a window to this era of rapid and high-stakes aircraft development.
