Shrive Frank J. Edited by Norman Shrive. Historical note by Robert H. Johnston.
THE DIARY OF A P.B.O. POOR BLOODY OBSERVER.
Erin Ontario: Boston Mills Press 1981. 88 pp 4to 11 1/4" H. Map endpapers b&w photographs. "At eighteen along with several of his Boy Scout pals Shrive joined the 129th Battery of the Royal Canadian Artillery. Chistmas 1916 found Shrive in England encamped in the seemingly endless rain on Salisbury Plain. The next May he was on the Western Front and on June 17 1917 still only nineteen he was struck by shrapnel at Vimy Ridge. By one of the ironies that war provides he can be considered lucky for his wounds sent him to England to convalesce. There we pick up his story on a September afternoon. His narrative begins at this point where chance intervened to change the direction of his life. While lying on a Kentish hillside he saw two airplanes then new-fangled marvels cavorting in the sky above. Why didn't he join the infant Royal Flying Corps a friend present asked The thought was not a new one but the moment to act was. Young Shrive joined the RFC and made as he recognised at the time 'one of the most important decisions of my life.' One significant result of this decision came a year later when the newly commissioned 2nd Lieutenant Frank Shrive of the Royal Flying Corps found himself on board the SS Stephen out of Dundee bound for Russia. With him was a Canadian artillery brigade and infantry regiments from the United States Britain and France. They were on their way to Archangel on the northern Russian coast and though they did not perhaps realize it were about to participate in the Russian Civil War." Minor edge wear. Dust jacket has light to moderate edge wear/wrinkling a few tiny tears archivally taped light rubbing with colour loss. Hard Cover. Very Good/Good. Boston Mills Press Hardcover

Shul, Brian [Signed]; Watson Jr., Walter
The Untouchables - Mission Accomplished - Twentieth Anniversary Commemorative Signed Edition
Signed and inscribed by Brian Shul upon front free endpaper. Oblong 14" x 10.75". 184 pages. Glossary. Profusely illustrated with stunning colour photos. This commemorative edition contains new and revised text and photographic material in addition to material previously published in The Untouchables in 1993. "Shul and Watson take you with them on their hottest SR-71 missions during the Libyan Crisis in 1896. Flying in support of the F-111 bombing raid on Libyan terrorist camps, they were the only SR-71 crew ever to fly three missions in three days. Roaring across the African desert faster than a Magnum .357 bullet, the crew reveals in riveting detail what it was like to outrun enemy missiles and complete the most exhausting missions of their Blackbird career. Masterfully intertwines cockpit action with the fascinating revelations of that unique cadre of civilians who helped design, build and maintain the most remarkable aircraft of the 20th Century. Lavishly illustrated with rare [color] photographs, [this book] is a riveting complementary volume to Sled Driver, taking you straight into the thick of combat through the firsthand perspectives of both Pilot and RSO. Transports you directly into the cockpit as the mission clock ticks down, revealing through the poignant words of those who were there why the people and the plane were truly untouchable." - dust jacket. "The closest you will come to flying a real combat sortie in the SR-71. Fascinating revelations." - Major General Walker Abrahms, USAF. Publisher's black cloth adorned with bright gilt lettering and illustration. Unmarked. Contents clean and bright. Binding intact with minor lean. Boards mildly undulating. Somewhat above-average wear to dust jacket now preserved in glossy new archival-grade Brodart. A worthy signed copy of this epic SR-71 memento. Book

Slight wear to wraps ownership markings on foredges interiors as-new in all respects. 6.75" x 9.5" 374 pages graphs index. - From the publisher: "Air University is proud to have joined the Air Staff and the International Security Studies Program of the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University in sponsoring the April 1991 conference on aerospace challenges and missions that produced this collection of essays. Written by a distinguished group of specialists from academia the military government business and the media these essays examine American national security policy and Air Force issues from a variety of perspectives. Aside from their remarkable perceptiveness the contributions of the authors are especially timely because they address the pivotal role of air power in the war with Iraq. The essays leave no doubt that the employment of both established and innovative methods of air combat in that crisis has important implications for the global-security environment of the future.".
