4.0 out of 5 stars
Interesting story of a great person, time and place...,
By
This review is from: Fly for Your Life (Mass Market Paperback)
I read this book about 15 years ago. It was very descriptive about the person and situation. I had always remembered Tuck and it was interesting that when he passed away in 1988 it made the front page in the local paper here in Houston. I just recently purchased a lithograph of some Hurricanes that was signed by Tuck. I'm really intrigued by this guy and his story.

4.0 out of 5 stars
One of the best WW II biographies ever written!,
By Gergellor (Supimpalāndia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fly for Your Life (Mass Market Paperback)
Forrester did a wonderful job writing this book in 1956. Bob Tuck shot down 29 German planes in WW II, in an amazing career that was cut short when he was shot down by flak in January, 28, 1942, and then was made a prisoner of war. He was the authentic "fighter heroe", a wild fighter and a great leader with accute eyesight. The narrative style of the writer is fantastic, and you read the book fastly.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A touching history,
By A Customer
This review is from: Fly for Your Life (Mass Market Paperback)
This book is so hard to find nowadays, and it should be reprinted on the double! Larry Forrester described Tuck exploits in a sucinte way, never tending so much to the "heroic" role of fighter pilots, but never underestimating his feats. It's a short, touching history.
