Viscount Buckingham Tremayne Giffard, was born into an aristocratic English family, eventually becoming their first, "Knight in Aviation".
Enlisting in the fledging Royal Flying Corps, he flew in France in the bloody battles of WW1. After the Armistice in 1918, he went on to see service on the turbulent Northwest Frontier of British India, seeing the birth of the newly formed Royal Air Force. Followed by operations in the constant tribal unrest in Mesopotamia (Iraq).
His entire military service was intertwined in the personal tragedies of, Love, Death, War and Marriage. Having risen to Air Officer Rank, the sudden death of his father in 1940, required his reluctant resignation from the Royal Air Force, and acceptance of his responsibilities as the new Earl Buckingham.
The historical events in this book, are accurate and confirmed by Squadron Leader Roy Handley and his late father, their combined service totalled 60 years in the Royal Air Force.
