At the beginning of 1918 the great aces seemed invincible. Flying above the battlefields of the Western Front they cut a deadly swathe through the ranks of their enemies as each side struggled to keep control of the air. Some were little more than boys when they started to fly yet they were respected & feared as some of the deadliest killers in the sky. But as the press of fighting increased with the great offensives of 1918 nervous stress & physical exhaustion finally began to take their toll
- & one by one the aces began to fall. This book charts the rise & fall of the WWI aces in the context of the vast battles that were taking place in 1918. It shows the vital importance of reconnaissance & how large formations of aircraft became the norm
