Produktinformationen zu „Our Pilots in the Air (ePub)“

Excerpt: A BOMBING AIR RAID. The scene in the valley was striking in one respect. Low ranges of gently sloping hills had widened out, enclosing broad levels with what in America would be termed a creek but was here poetically named a river. By here I mean eastern France, not so many miles from No-Man's-Land. The striking feature was the Flying Camp spread out over a dead level of much trampled greensward, enclosed by high board walls, irregularly oval in shape, with a large clump of trees in the centre and a multiplicity of large, small, mostly queer-shaped buildings scattered about. There were a few wide roadways, with smaller avenues intersecting them, and larger open spaces, bordered by hangars, at either end of the oval.

Autoren-Porträt von William Perry Brown

William Perry Brown, son of Brigadier General Philip Perry Brown and Sarah (Jackson) Brown, was born near Ardmore, Indian Territory, in 1847. The family originally came from New York, but his father was a minister and in charge of a mission school in the Indian Territory when he was born. He attended Madison (now Colgate) College, Hamilton, New York, but was not graduated. At the outbreak of the Civil War, his father left him with his grandfather at Philadelphia, where he began some kind of odd job work on a newspaper.
