First published in 1973, this is an account of those forbidden to carry parachutes; they lived in dread of being shot down in flames; their life expectancy was measured in days...

But these were the flyers who became legends in their own life-times - Albert Ball, Manfred von Richthofen, Mick Mannock, Rene Fonck, Georges Guynemer.

Aces High is the vivid chronicle of aerial warfare during five turbulent years.
