This lovely 1933 edition of "Knight of Germany: Oswald Boelcke - German Ace" is housed in its original dustjacket, featuring a black ink illustration of a dogfight by Howard Leigh. Bound in light blue cloth with black ink lettering, this hardback book contains 241 pages of text, peppered with stunning contemporary black and white photographs, and complete with a map of the Westfront to the back of the book. This fantastic book provides a sympathetic biography of one of Germany's deadliest wartime flyers, Oswald Boelcke, who is described as a kind-hearted gentleman and sportsman who killed his enemies with great regret. This copy, and its original dustjacket, are in very good condition - with few notable blemishes or imperfections other than some minor bumping to the dustjacket and some minor foxing to the edges of the book. "Knight of Germany" is looking for a new home and would make for the perfect gift for any aviation enthusiast.
