Going Solo

by Roald Dahl

Going Solo Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Going Solo, the second part of Roald Dahl's compelling and colourful autobiography, creates a world as bizarre and unnerving as any you will find in his fiction. A marvellous evocation of his wartime exploits, it tells of African safaris and deadly snakes; of fighter planes and incredible air battles with the enemy during World War Two.

Review:

"The book is exciting, touching and graced by Dahl's incomparable sense of humor: a standout." Publishers Weekly

Synopsis:

The fascinating story of Roald Dahl's life continues in "Going Solo", a marvelous evocation of the author's wartime exploits as a pilot in World War II. Illustrations.
