Our Flying Aces – Ion Idriess (Paperback / Soft Cover)

With the success of The Desert Column in 1932, Idriess wrote this series of mini-biographies on Australia’s World War One Flying aces – John Duigan, Harry Cobby, Ross Smith, Oswald Watt, Gordon Taylor, Frank McNamara – our first V.C. aviator, and the post war acrobatics of Macintosh and Paper. Introducing the lot with a background piece on Lawrence Hargraves, Idriess shows how innovative our early airmen were, and details acts of bravado and downright lunacy in these earliest machines. Fully illustrated, and glows with his unique style.
