In a sensational tale of combat and an unlikely friendship in the flak-filled skies above Germany, Frater chronicles the life of U.S. Captain Werner Goering, an exceptional American pilot who was also thought to be the nephew of Herman Goering, leading member of the Nazi party and Commander in Chief of the Luftwaffe.
