Description

207 pages. Index. Black and white photographic plates. "The story of Sidney Cotton's pre-WWII reconnaissance flights - culminating in a tense episode in late August 1939, when his Lockheed was the last civil aeroplane to leave Berlin - is as thrilling as any novel of the secret service. But it was only a chapter in the adventurous career of this man, born in Australia, who has become something of a legend in his own lifetime." - from dust jacket. Heavily-worn former library copy with usual markings. Binding intact. Not pretty but a worthy reading copy. Book
