First Edition
176 pp. Near-mint copy of this collective biography of great pilots from all belligerents. The book itself is nearly immaculate; the book is essentially unused. Text block is tight and clean with no markings of any kind and no signs of provenance. Unclipped DJ is NF only, owing to as-usual tanning (flaps) and a bit of fading and rippling at tail edge; mylar covered. Overall, an exceptionally well-preserved copy for a book of this date. "To select fourteen fighter pilots from the hundreds who fought with distinction on all sides during World War II has been a difficult, not to say impertinent task. In the end, as representative of all the others, I selected those who, to my mind, showed certain individual characteristics that seemed to set them apart" (7).

This is the story of the fighter aces who flew throughout the war in many different operational theatres. The book opens with the first Polish Aces during the German invasion and continues with Finland's pilots in the Winter War against the Soviets. There follows the battle for France with the experiences of RAF, Luftwaffe and French Aces and then the legendary Battle of Britain. North Africa became a critical area, together with the heroic defense of Malta and air battles over Greece and the Balkans that were fought in 1941. The Eastern front opened with operation Barbarossa where German aces were created by the dozen, flying superior aircraft against an ill-trained Soviet air force - and then in the north when pilots battle for air supremacy over Leningrad and the Russian seaports. When Japan entered the fray in 1942 their first aces flew over Singapore, Java and Sumatra and the early US Marine aces earned their spurs at Guadalcanal. Back in Europe RAF fighter pilots were taking the war to the enemy and in the southern theatre, the desert and Balkan air forces struck into the southern belly of the Reich. After D-Day British and American fighter units supported the Allied land advance and also defended London against Hitler's V-1s, whilst in the east Soviet aces battled over Berlin. In the closing stages of the war Germany introduced its first jet fighter aces and then finally in the days before the atomic bombs we read of the Japanese aces flying in desperate defense of their homeland as it comes under air attack for the first time.
