My First Impartial Review
On the home stretch to publication, I’ve reached out to a few great old friends for their thoughts and feedback. Elaine liked it and so did my good buddies Tom and Pat M+10, but I recently established contact with Andy Fraser, who owns, edits and publishes a stable of excellent monthly local magazines here in England. He was interested in reviewing Phantom to Warthog and I jumped at the opportunity to have my book appraised by a media professional who wasn’t a wife, fellow flyer or long time drinking buddy. I sent him a bootleg PDF of the Book,and you’ll find the result below. Andy’s a Brit, so those of you on the western side of the Atlantic may experience the occasional translation crisis and there are a couple local references but I’m sure you’ll manage.
Andy’s review is comprehensive, and I urge you to take it all in–those of you who flew with me for years will understand why this book’s bit different–and why it’s not written only for you. I hope those who aren’t aviation fanatics, or indeed, have no interest at all in fighters, the military, or Top Gun movies will take five minutes to digest Andy’s assessment-you may just find an element or more than a few that interest you!
