Going
Solo
by Roald Dahl
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, Roald Dahl had some wonderfully exciting - and frighteningly
near-death - experiences including encounters with the enemy, battles with
deadly snakes, and incredible dogfights. Told with the same irresistible
appeal that has made Dahl one of the world's best-loved writers, Going
Solo brings you directly into the action and into the mind of this
brilliant man. This is part two of his auto-biography - the first part
of which is "Boy".
