Less complicated times.

Biggles is a hero of the golden age of flight. Typical English Schoolboy reading material, his many adventures are set in the war years or just after and give a sense of simpler times when the good guys were really good and the bad guys always lost.Biggles Flies West stands out amongst these books because it is set on a desert island where Biggles wrecks his seaplane and maroons himself in true Robinson Crusoe style. There are jungles and pirates and even a gold dubloon or two.If you like uncomplicted adventure and like ripping yarns, you'll love Biggles.
