About this Item

Above the Trenches - A Complete Record of all the Fighter Aces and Units of the British Empire Air Forces I915-20 was published to critical acclaim in 1990. It was hailed as a classic and quickly sold out. The result of 20 years of research it was and still is, the most comprehensive book ever written on the aces of the British Empire Fighting scout units during WWI. There are over 800 biographies of individual pilots with introductory notes providing place and date of birth, service record, decorations, full details of claims and post-war career. Due to popular demand, this volume is now back in print. Moreover, since 1990 the authors have continued their research, uncovering and receiving much new information through correspondence and documentary evidence, as well as collecting new photographs. In total there are 12 new aces, amendments/ additions to nearly 500 biographies and 67 new photos, all of which now appear in this Supplement which is an essential reference for all those who have a copy of Above the Trenches.
