Requirements: .ePUB, .MOBI/.AZW reader, 1.2 MB
Overview: Has the Red Baron made as big an impact on the computer world as Bill Gates? How did the Red Baron’s exceptional shooting ability lead to a major breakthrough in the construction of suspension bridges? Why is the Red Baron the most remembered soldier of World War One in spite of the fact that the 80 planes he shot down had no impact on the outcome of the war? How is the true story of Manfred von Richthofen an amazing fulfillment of several ancient myths from all over the world? Who would win in a face-off—the Red Baron or Adolf Hitler? In “Last Knight, First Ace: The Red Baron as Legend and Myth,” former United States Air Force historian Robin Smith puts aside military facts and looks at Richthofen’s many and varied appearances in popular culture and discovers that the Red Baron belongs, along with King Arthur, in the realm of mythology.
