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 Benjamin Bozon-Yerduraz.
