One in a Thousand by Graham Broad
This short microhistory details the life and death of Eddie McKay, a varsity athlete at Western University, who flew with the Royal Flying Corps in the First World War."Professor Broad’s extensive notes on how to identify relevant source materials, how to pose questions, and how to assemble a book into a coherent story are invaluable"
-- Dana Lombardy * World War One Illustrated, July 2018 *"Broad offers a very important study of both the history and historiography of one pilot’s experiences in the RFC during two of the most critical years of the air war over the Western Front. The relevance of his work is not confined to aviation or military history scholars but the non-specialist reader as well. His academic research, unique methodological approach, and use of primary and secondary sources are first-rate."
-- Thomas G. Bradbeer, US Army Command & General Staff College * First World War Studies *Graham Broad is an associate professor of History at Kings College at Western University.
