The Red Baron



Today would have been Manfred von Richthofen's 114th birthday. I've tried reading To the Last Man the World War I novel that spends a great deal of time on the Red Baron written by Jeff Shaara a couple of times and though the subject interests me greatly - I just haven't been able to finish the book.

I did find it interesting that the book pictured above by Richtofen is now available for download on the Internet. I'll try giving that a read but I need to say that though Richtofen may be the best known of the WWI pilots but Eddie Rickenbacker is by far my favorite.
