From the perils of World War 1 aerial dogfights to the daring antics of his post-war barnstorming stunts, the adventures of Captain Freddie McCall, flying ace and maverick Calgarian, come to life in Shirlee Smith Matheson’s book.

As the top 5th ranked Canadian World War 1 fighting ace, McCall was a true Canadian hero. His wartime accomplishments were amazing, and a testament to his clan motto, Dulce Periculum – Danger is Sweet. His extraordinary flying skills and self-reliant entrepreneurial spirit make him one of Canada’s most memorable twentieth-century characters.
