Going Solo is the action-packed tale of Roald Dahl's exploits as a World War II pilot. Learn all about his encounters with the enemy, his worldwide travels, the life-threatening injuries he sustained in a plane accident, and the rest of his sometimes bizarre, often unnerving, and always colorful adventures.

Review:

"[E]xciting, touching and graced by Dahl's incomparable sense of humor: a standout." Publishers Weekly

Roald Dahl is best known for his fantastic short stories and work on childrens books and screenplays on TV, however he also wrote a very interesting memoir of his days in the RAF at the begining of WW2. Not ever dry or dull and some of it is even laugh out loud funny, this work is a time capsule to another era in our history. Be sure to get a copy . It reads very fast and will leave you wanting more.
