Going Solo by Roald Dahl The fascinating story of Roald Dahl's life continues in Going Solo, a marvelous evocation of the author's wartime exploits. As a pilot in World War II, Roald Dahl had some wonderfully exciting -  and frighteningly near-death - experiences including encounters with the enemy, battles with deadly snakes, and incredible dogfights. Told with the same irresistible appeal that has made Dahl one of the world's best-loved writers, Going Solo brings you directly into the action and into the mind of this brilliant man. This is part two of his auto-biography - the first part of which is "Boy". Paperback - 224 pages Reissue edition Puffin; ISBN: 0141303107
