 Tumult in the Clouds by James Goodson -238 pages

Goodson was an ace World War II fighter pilot who first flew with the Royal Canadian Air Force during the Battle of Britain before joining the American "Eagle Squadron" and later the U.S. 4th Fighter Group. His experiences included flying Hurricanes, Spitfires, Thunderbolts, and Mustangs. He was not credited with his final two victories since he was shot down on that mission while strafing an ME163 rocket plane. He was nearly shot as a spy by the SS before being reunited with many friends in a P.O.W. camp where he spent the remainder of the war.  The author included profiles and stories of his pilot comrades, many of whom did not survive.
