This is the story of the man who founded the first civil aviation school in Mexico, as told by his grandson. The country is slowly emerging from the Revolution, where the recently invented "flying machines" proved their worth by spying behind enemy lines, while barely escaping the fire coming from the ground. Money is scarce and the military rule. Aviation is a grand adventure that has caught the imagination of the entire world, a new kind of hero is born: the pilot.
A tour de force for the reader interested in a little known bit of aviation history.
