Reissued with a stunning new cover, this is the perfect
introduction to this bestselling series for new readers.
He tilted the machine on to its side, holding up his nose
with the throttle, and commenced to slip wing-tip first
towards the ground. Whether he was over British or German
territory he neither knew nor cared; he had to get on to the
ground or be burnt alive. This is the story of the very beginning — of the Air Service
and of Biggles. It's the First World War and Biggles is just
17; the planes are primitive; combat tactics are non-
existent; and pilots and their gunners communicate by hand
signals and have no contact with the ground. This is where
Biggles learns his craft and finds he has a certain aptitude
for flying in battle.
