Publisher's Synopsis
Aviation was in its infancy in World War One. Men of iron threw their rickety planes of wood and fabric around the sky furiously. Thousands died in combat, but heroes rose up as well. The daring exploits of aces captivated folks back home. Chivalry and horrific death joined hands in an era that will never be seen again. Enamored with these knights of the sky and frustrated by America's isolationism, Jimmy Arneson and Hank Jacobs volunteer for the British Royal Flying Corps in 1916. Thrust into the melee, each must fight his own battles. Their enduring friendship will be tested in the dawn of flight.
