19816631fdCharlottesville: University Press of Virginia 1981. Octavo white & red cloth hardcover gilt letters xxvii 224 pp. Neat former-owner bookplate; otherwise Fine in a Fine dust jacket. From dust jacket: The diaries and flight log of Edmond C. C. Genet contain the only known daily record of an American’s service with the French Air Service and the Lafayette Escadrille in 1915-17. They give us an intimate and engrossing picture of life at the front during the period before the United States entered the First World War. Edmond Genet was a distinctive young man - an idealistic vanguardist bent upon front-line action. His comrades said “there was a flare of an eighteenth-century gallant about him somehow agreeable mixed with an unabashed Boy Scout’s attitude toward the war.†He was nevertheless part of the most perilous branch of the military and one of the first Americans to be involved in the new and deadly warfare of air combat. In his diary he writes spontaneously about his training his friends his fears and his dogfights. He frequently mentions aces. His absorbing accounts are the most complete primary material on the legendary Lafayette Escadrille to be published in fifty years. University Press of Virginia, (1981). hardcover books
