by Norman Franks
Born during the horrendous Battle of Verdun in 1916, The Storks became France's premier fighting group in World War I. Initially comprising the Escadrilles N3, N26, N73 N103 and under the leadership of Felix Brocard, GC12 counted among its fighter pilots most of the big French aces of the war - Guynemer Fonck (with 75 victories), Heurteaux, Deullin, de Sevin, Bozon-Verdurez and many more. It also had several American volunteers amongst its ranks, notably Frank Baylies, Edwin Parsons, Bert Hall and Charles Biddle. The book is packed with photographs of pilots and aircraft plus side view drawings of aircraft and their markings.

battalions. The Royal Scots (The Royal Regiment) 1st
Foot, is a Lowland regiment, the oldest regiment of
the line in the British Army, and as if to emphasize
that fact its nickname is “Pontius Pilate’s
Bodyguard”. In 1914 it consisted of two regular, one
reserve and seven territorial battalions. The book is
arranged on a chronological basis with each chapter
covering a specific period of time, whether on the
