Edward Vernon Rickenbacker (born Edward Rickenbacher, October 8, 1890 - July 23, 1973) was an American fighter pilot in World War I and a Medal of Honour recipient. With 26 aerial victories, he was the most successful and most decorated United States flying ace of the war. He was also a racing driver, an automotive designer, and a long-time head of Eastern Air Lines. Originally published in 1919 this book is a first person account of aerial combat during the Great War written by Captain Edward V. Rickenbacker, the American Ace of Aces, and captures the danger, the triumphs, and the tragedy of the young men of the first American air force. This revised and corrected edition is edited by W. David Lewis and is as faithful as possible to the diary and original text prepared by Rickenbacker in 1918. Ref UU2.
