2001Signed and inscribed by author atop title page. viii, 502pp. Two colour photos. "I have a concern. Was the death of 18,000 Canadian aircrew (in WWII) in vain? Who will carry the torch when we who were there are gone? My position on 'who cares now' may touch a tender spot in some, but my airforce friends did not die in vain. We must be reminded of the horrors of a major war; there is a better way." - from back cover. Light wear. A quality copy. Book

1918ref. 4740Cambridge United Kingdom: Bowes and Bowes 1918. hardcover. Very Good. N/A. Cinquante Quatre: Flying Corps Songs Anonymous 54 Squadron RFC — Second Impression Publication: Cambridge Bowes and Bowes 1918 Formatting: 8vo unpaginated. Condition Report: Very Good. The cloth binding remains remarkably tight and structurally sound. While the light blue cloth over boards displays some minor edge wear and a gentle darkening to the spine the gilt titling to the upper cover remains notably bright and unoxidised. Internally the pages are crisp bright and free from any significant foxing stains or handling marks suggesting the volume has been carefully stored. The presence of a clear protective sleeve has evidently aided in the preservation of this delicate wartime publication. Catalogue Note: This is the second impression published in April 1918 following the privately printed first impression of July 1917. As stated on the title page the volume is complete with its seven original collotype illustrations. Originally compiled for the men of No. 54 Squadron of the Royal Flying Corps this book is genuinely scarce on the open market. These ephemeral privately printed military songbooks were often read to pieces in the mess halls or discarded after the war making surviving original copies in such respectable condition quite uncommon. Compiled during the height of the First World War Cinquante Quatre is a rare and evocative collection of songs sung by the pilots and mechanics of No. 54 Squadron of the Royal Flying Corps. Filled with dark humour technical jargon and a poignant spirit of endurance these verses offer a visceral glimpse into the daily lives fears and bravado of early military aviators. An essential piece of aviation history this volume preserves the authentic voice of the men who took to the skies in Sopwith Pups. Bowes and Bowes hardcover
