The Greatest Air Race

The Greatest Air Race is a fictionalized version of the events and characters involved in the race for the first Atlantic Ocean crossing by aircraft. The story includes an exciting account of epic flight of Jack Alcock and Teddie Brown which is amazingly true to the actual flight log, as recorded by Teddie Brown during the actual flight. The reminiscing of Jack about his experiences as an Navy pilot in the Great War are essentially historically accurate, however the author uses his artistic licence in the development of some of the characters and details. There is also an Epilogue which details the eventual fate of all the major participants of this exciting historical event.
