Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To survive, Lance Fitch makes the enemy vermin, his friends expendable, and his chivalry more threadbare than a beggar's cloak. As the conflagration of World War 1 spreads around the world, it subsumes Lance. As part of his revenge quest, he joins the British Royal Flying Corps. Arthur Wolsey, his commanding officer, begs him to join 100 Wing - elite pilots tasked with wresting control of the air from Manfred Richthofen's "Flying Circus." The Germans are cutting such a bloody swathe across the skies that the average survival time of an RFC pilot in the air is a mere seventeen hours. Lance and Arthur struggle to stay alive, never mind preserving their Wing and their friendship. The latter is further stressed by Arthur's alluring half-sister, Megan. Lance learns fast, but when Richthofen is the teacher, those lessons are bloody... In Knights of the Air, Book 1: Rage! by Iain Stewart, we experience the terror of mortal combat in the heavens, while flying flimsy, flammable planes without parachutes.

Download or read book A Treasury of War Poetry British and American Poems of the World War 1914 1917 WWI Centenary Series written by G. H. Clarke and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2016-03-10 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The present Anthology contains a number of representative poems produced by English-speaking men and women. The editorial policy has been humanly hospitable, rather than academically critical, especially in the case of some of the verses written by soldiers at the Front, which, however slight in certain instances their technical merit may be, are yet psychologically interesting as sincere transcripts of personal experience, and will, it is thought, for that very reason, peculiarly attract and interest the reader. It goes without saying that there are several poems in this group which conspicuously succeed also as works of art. For the rest, the attempt has been made, within such limitations as have been experienced, to present pretty freely the best of what has been found available in contemporary British and American war verse."
