Pedro, with his pipe, moustache, upper class accent and slightly detached air was the archetypal public-school educated Englishman, but his leadership skills and care for his men commanded respect from all ranks and nationalities.

An accomplished letter writer, his lust for life and thirst for action are evident in his missives to family and friends. His dramatic first hand descriptions of air combat during the Battle of Britain with 602 Squadron and later as CO of 260 Squadron in the North African desert make for fascinating reading.

A great signed book for the Battle of Britain library and another account of the exploits both on the ground and in the air of the famous 602 Squadron.
