5.0 out of 5 stars
A true story told with great humanity,
By labnet (Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Nicky Barr, an Australian Air Ace: A Story of Courage and Adventure (Paperback)
Like the previous reviewer, I could hardly put this book down. It is an amazing story told in cinamgraphic detail. It would have been a good book written as fiction, but to know the stories are all true (I confirmed the outline with an RAAF offical obit) brings a part of WWII to life. Well done Peter Dornan, in taking in so much oral history and weaving it into a compelling story.

A real HERO,
By
This review is from: Nicky Barr, an Australian Air Ace: A Story of Courage and Adventure (Paperback)
Nicky Barr's life and the courage he showed, were almost too unblieveable to be true. His biography by Peter Dornan is wonderfully written and impossible to put down. Nicky Barr was a quiet, unassuming man, but a fierce, aggressive fighter to his enemy in battle, and a great friend to those who knew him. The reader will come away feeling like the latter.
His wife and true love, Dot, passed away in May 2006 and Nicky joined her in June. Thanks to Peter Dornan, for allowing me to know them both! |
