It is one of the biggest issues - and a pivotal turning point - in history...the Chinese civil war. On one aspect stands Chiang Kai-shek and the Nationalists. On the other, Mao Zedong and the Communists. And their causes are about to meet in a decisive challenge...the outcome which is in the hands of 1 American pilot, John Hampton, a guy who, like Bogart in Casablanca, couldn't care and attention less... He's a mercenary, soaring for the highest bidder, his only devotion to himself also to cold hard cash. He has nothing at all to trust in, and nothing to lose. But just as this is a critical moment in history, so, too, could it be about to turn into a defining moment in Hampton's life. What's the extraordinary experience that gets the power to penetrate Hampton's armor of cynicism and touch his heart and soul? The facts that makes him see that we now have things, other than money, that are worthwhile fighting - and perhaps even dying - for? The surprising answers spur him to undertake the ultimate quest in Red Fatality Over China. Hubbard experienced China in the 1930s in ways few Westerners did. Going from the slots of the China Sea to Beijing to the fantastic Wall membrane and onto the hillsides of Southern Manchuria, he came up to learn the land and its own people - soldiers, spies, outlaws and monks - as well as any North american could. It is that record that shines through in tales like Red Fatality Over China. Also includes the flying adventures The Dog crate Killer, in which a test pilot melts away his nine lives parachuting nine times from crumbling planes, only to discover that his tenth trip presents the biggest challenge of most; and Wings Over Ethiopia, the storyline of the pilot captured and accused to be a spy by both edges in a conflict - and his only means of get away from is through the lens of the camera.
