Description:[Bill Lambert: World War I Flying Ace is a detailed scholarly biography of a World War I pilot who "lived at the edge of greatness, but could never get there." From late March to mid-August 1918, William C. Lambert from Ironton, Ohio, flew as a fighter pilot for the Royal Flying Corps/Royal Air Force (RFC/RAF) in World War I. A surprising number of Americans went to Canada and joined the British flying services during the war. Unfortunately, for the most part, their life stories have never been told. Several of them went on to have distinguished records. Unbeknownst to anyone, when Lambert left the war his twenty-two victories were the largest total among any American fighter pilot in the war. By the Armistice, Lambert's total would be surpassed by Eddie Rickenbacker, the former race car driver from Columbus, Ohio, with twenty-six victories. Lambert survived the war and lived to be 88; however, until late in life, he was unwilling to take advantage of his war record to achieve public acclaim.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
