"After being dragged out of jail and placed on parole by Comrade Trotsky..." is the opening sentence in this book of memorable memoirs. It begins with a flashback to 1920 in Russia, where Bandy was... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Donald Jack has written some of the funnies scenes I have ever read. Bandy's last flight in his Vimy is a classic. The series is 5 stars all the way (until the last two books). If you like humor and/or great historical fiction (they aren't often found together!), you will love these books.
The Bandy Papers

These books are well written and absolutely hilarious. Why are such great books always out of print? If you come across any of the Bandy Papers in a 2nd hand bookshop, do not hesitate irrespective of price or condition.
A humorous accounting of the first pilot in WW1
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
With no airports at the time, and planes flying where a sight to see with very few out there. The reaction of people seeing one landing in their feilds and the pilot asking if they had any fuel or help in getting directions and turning the plane around keeps you laughing. Not to mention his dareing antics preformed by accident
