Such an inspiring non-fiction story that reads like an adventure novel. Would love to see this book back in print! ☺️ I would give it to every 10-13 yr old boy I know. (I think my girls would enjoy it as well)

I read this book in the fourth grade and have reread it many times over the years. It always takes me back to the time of my first admiration of jet fighter pilots and their personal emotional experiences. Charles Coombs really brings the reader into the story.
It’s a shame that sellers command such exorbitant prices for this book. It is keeping it out of the hands of those who would really enjoy it but cannot afford to purchase it from those who specialize in greed.

I'd love to have a copy of this book but it is currently about $800!

I read this as a kid and I had forgotten all about it until someone that I went to school with posted it on Facebook today. I enjoyed this.
