Jeff Bailey reviews Above And Beyond by William Wright

 

Above And Beyond: Radio Silence by William Wright is a memoir account of one airman’s World War II experiences. While the various scenes are fiction, the basis of the book and of the scenes themselves is historically accurate. Told in the first person, the stories are grippingly realistic. This is the third William Wright book that I’ve read and reviewed. The three are so different from one another that one might assume that they a reader might assume that they were from different authors., which screams of William Wrights skill as an author. Above and Beyond is a first person, fictionalized account of the rear stories told to Wright by his father. It is not the account of great battles or popular generals, but the down-in-the-trenches memories of a true war hero. I read the book in one sitting, and it was superb. My highest kudos William Wright. The book is a jewel.
