Synopsis
During the Second World War Roald Dahl served in the RAF and even suffered horrific injuries in an air crash in the Libyan Desert. Drawing on his own experiences as a fighter pilot, Dahl crafted these ten spine-tingling stories: of air battles in the sky; of the nightmare of being shot down; the infectious madness of conflict; and the nervy jollity of the Mess and Ops room.
Originally published in leading American magazines, these stories probe the inner workings of men facing the living nightmare of war every day.
