Walmsley flew for the British during the East African Campaign of World War I, including flights around the Mt. Kilimanjaro region, Rufiji, and Lake Nyasa.

Spine ends a little frayed, and marking and rubbing to rear cover. Original endpapers are well age-tanned. Colored frontispiece, photo plates, and map plates.
