Hero of the Himalayas (Simplified Chinese Edition) [Chinese]

A personal account of the most famous fighter squadrons of World War II, the Flying Tigers. They turned the tide of Japan's aggressive domination of the Far East. This is the memoir of Eddie Long, one of the elite Chinese pilots who joined The Flying Tigers. His story is inspiring and amazing, from his defying experiences flying the infamous Hump Route to facing the Japanese in air battles. Eddie's personal reminiscences and meticulous research has provided historical context and anecdotes about other Flying Tiger pilots and experiences of the Chinese people before, during, and after the war. The gallantry and courage of Eddie Long is mirrored in the dedication and sacrifice of the Chinese citizens who helped the Flying Tigers at the risk of their own safety. Hero of the Himalayas will give you a unique understanding of a crucial aspect of the Allie's success in defeating Japan as well as showing the amazing heights to which people can rise in the cause of love, brotherhood and freedom
