THE RED DEVILS

Graham Smith, W.H.Allen, 1989.

The Red Devils Britain’s most celebrated free-fall parachute team, celebrating it's 25^th anniversary (at year of publication). What is it like to be a member of the Red Devils and free-fall at 120 miles per hour in the space of twelve seconds? How do you get into the team? What qualities do you need? In this book, writer Graham Smith and free-fall team photographers Graham Robertson and Ian Barraclough capture the essence of what it is like to be a member of this elite squad. Based on interviews with members of the team and illustrated with spectacular full-colour in the air photographs. This is the story of today’s Red Devils – their history, selection, training and displays. As well as the beautiful photographs there are some formation diagrams. A superb item.

The book is large and heavy so parcel post or surface mail might be the order of the day. Both the book and the dust jacket are in excellent condition.
