ISBN: 9780809496006.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe aircraft were parasols, Sopwith Camels, Moranes; the young warriors who flew them were the worlds first aces. They piloted their flimsy planes in dawn patrols across no-mans-land and over enemy trenches, dived headlong--guns stuttering--into deadly Richthofen Circus, and dueled with an adversary as brave as themselves. They fought the first--and last--gallant war in the skies.\nThese memoirs of a combat pilot in Englands Royal Flying Corps during WW I are a great classic of military aviation, a chronicle of a lost age of heroes and the birth of a new age of flight.\n\"This prince of pilots has had a charmed life in every sense of the word. He is a thinker, a master of words and a bit of a poet\" --George Bernard Shaw\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Time Life","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44952244879413,"sku":"ByrdShop_0809496003","price":89.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780809496006_fbf086c0-e1b5-4a70-ba22-b4e9e90354e8.jpg?v=1781398751","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/sagittarius-rising-wings-of-war-9780809496006","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
