The WWI French Aces Encyclopedia Volume 1: Achand to Boyau

French fighter pilots inflicted more than half the losses suffered by the German air service in the Great War, and the French aces accounted for nearly half of those. Based on extensive research, noted French aviation historian David Méchin has documented the personal stories of these aces in the WWI French Aces Encyclopedia with accurate text, photos, detailed victory tables, and color profiles. Those stories are told in depth for the first time in English in this landmark set of books. Volume 1 tells the stories of 26 aces from Albert Achard to Maurice Boyau with 231 photos, 12 in color, and 31 color profiles in its 224 pages.
