Tam o' the Scoots EPUB
by Edgar Wallace
EPUB
Description
'Tam o' the Scoots' is a book that cannot help but stand out from the rest of Wallace's fiction.
In a good way, at that. It is a collection of ten short stories chronicling - in striking detail - the dire straits of a brilliant Scottish aircraft pilot whose heyday coincided with the First World War.
Casting light on the historical accuracy of the situations Tam underwent with the 'scoots' (Tam's Scottish pronunciation of scouts, which was what fighter pilots were dubbed back in the day) and the psychological inner workings of what constitutes a reliable pilot, Wallace's collection is comprised of light and sometimes sketchy tall-tales, served with a quintessential inkling of humour and action.
Insightful and attention-grabbing!Readers young and old alike will be excited to discover that Wallace's work has been adapted for the big screen many times with actors like Jack Black, Adrien Brody and Jamie Bell portraying characters from his books.-
