Roald Dahl - Going Solo (Autobiography #2) (New Paperback)
Synopsis
From the bestselling author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and The BFG.
The second part of Roald Dahl's remarkable life story, following on from Boy.
When he grew up, Roald Dahl left England for Africa - and a series of dangerous adventures began. From tales of plane crashes to surviving snake bites, this is Roald Dahl's extraordinary life before becoming the world's number one storyteller.
This book tells of Dahl's exploits as a World War II pilot. Told with the same irresistible appeal that has made Roald Dahl one the world's best-loved writers, Going Solo brings you directly into the action and into the mind of this fascinating man.
Here he is grown up: first in Africa, then learning to be a wartime fighter pilot. It is a story that is funny, frightening and full of fantasy - as you would expect.
