Flyboys, round engines and spooks

Flyboys, Round Engines and Spooks is a historical novel based on the experiences and exploits of a young air force lieutenant in Southeast Asia–during the Vietnamese war. Young Eddie serves as a pilot in both C-124s and the top secret EC-47 as he searches for the mystery woman of his dreams. The reader joins Eddie in the cockpit and shares the action and frustrations of flying in America’s most controversial war. Join young Eddie Warner as he matures in the nostalgic era of old piston engines, spark plugs, jungle and Asian splendor. Witness the top secret operations in the Plain of Jars that were labeled by the news media as the CIA’s secret war. Most of the flying is depicted as it actually happened, the culture of the crew members, their life styles, and the revelations are authentic as well as the places depicted. The characters and the story of Eddie are realistic but fictional.
