Heaven high, hell deep, 1917-1918

the long version

I was going through a book about my genealogy when I saw that my Great Great Grandfather’s nephew had written "Heaven High and Hell Deep” about WW1. I was elated to be able to read a book with such attention to detail of becoming a US fighter pilot in 1917 at the age of 23. He describes how he feels, how he learns to react in situations in battle, his closeness to his fellow pilots and what was going on in the war from his perspective. The description of the German prison camps from a personal experience as truly amazing. Norman’s writing style brought the experience to life for me as he shared his anguish and pain.
