Stephen King, an "Air Force brat," developed an avid interest in aviation at an early age. His wife is a distant cousin of Hubert Latham, and therein was born his desire to learn about early French aviation and, more specifically, about Latham himself. What makes this book so interesting is the fact that King was able to extract invaluable information about Latham from interviews he conducted with members of Lathamâs extended family. Windkiller rediscovers Hubert Latham, an aviator of towering repute in his time, but who today is barely known.
About: Presents a fictional account of the final years of life of French aviation pioneer Hubert Latham.
