Résumé

Don Buckley lived a boy's adventure tale. He grew up believing that intrigue, excitement, and even danger were waiting for those curious enough to capture them. From shooting BB guns as a boy to flying World War II bombers as a young man, he found all three. In My Best 80 Years, Don retraces his own steps from boyhood to manhood form the early 1920s to the late 1940s. He shares his escapades growing up in English-speaking Montreal and summers at boys' camps, on family vacations and working.
Some of his greatest adventures occur after he joins the Royal Canadian Air Force in WWII. He shares harrowing escapades - in air and on land - from his time stationed in Summerside, Prince Edward Island as an Officer, pilot and bomber trainer. Whether by design or happenstance, adventure comes to those who seek it. In this captivating autobiography, Don lets us experience it, without having to leave the comfort of our own homes.
