In Clouds of Glory
American Airmen Who Flew with the British during the Great War
James J. Hudson

Of the several hundred Americans who joined the Royal Air Force during the First World War, twenty-eight became aces by shooting down five or more aircraft.

Unfortunately, those American aces who flew only with the British are little known by the American public. In Clouds of Glory tells the story of these fliers in the first air war, young men who risked their lives and citizenship to help the British fight off the German squadrons.

An exhaustively researched study, In Clouds of Glory restores these American heroes to the place in history they had so bravely earned.
