Book reviews, July 1980, July 1980
Although we seldom review fiction in these pages, “Cloud Nineteen” (Michael Joseph, 1980, £5.95) by the well-known ex-RAF and now private pilot, and aviation writer, William Stanley is worth reading, as a thriller set in the WWI period, with very good descriptions of what it must have been like to fly in the Royal Naval Air Service non-rigid airships. — WB
