Présentation de l'éditeur

Rittmeister Manfred Freiherr von Richthofen, the highest scoring fighter pilot of the First World War, became an almost legendary figure after his death in action at the age of twenty-five. Although heavily edited before its release by the Imperial German government, this autobiography, begun by Richthofen while convalescing in the hospital after he suffered a severe head wound in July, 1917, is an interesting look into the mind of the man known to history as "The Red Baron". This English translation, first published in 1918, has the original preface and footnotes by C.G. Grey, which reflect the wartime animosity felt by the Allies toward their German enemy. Additional footnotes, an Appendix of Wartime photographs and an Index are also included in this new edition for 2013.
