L’AÉRONAUTIQUE MILITAIRE 1914-1918

This is a reference book, a catalogue of all the traditional insignias of the French Armée de l’Air. The 619 Escadrilles (squadrons) that were formed are all identified, commented on, illustrated and enlivened with anecdotes, historical reminders, pictures and photos…

It is a multiple-entry book which makes it possible to wander between traditions, men, fighting units, great and small stories that built up the History of aerial warfare between 1914 and 1918. I narrate the way the French Air Force developed its own personality in the Great War though its combats, its allies, its Aces and Escadrilles.
