Crew (Pushkin Collection)

As the First World War rages amid the mud and craters of the Western Front, an even more deadly struggle is playing out in the air above. Early flying machines are pushed to their limits in a desperate struggle for mastery of the skies--the world's first aerial conflict, and one in which a combatant can count his life expectancy in weeks. The pressure of this terrible battle forges a strong bond between two men, the crew of a French reconnaissance plane--but can it survive the discovery that they are both in love with the same woman?
