Fiorello H. LaGuardia. In July 1918, he copiloted the first American flight across the Alps. Lewis' photographs, dated journal entries, and excerpts from his letters to his sweetheart, Bert Hartsch, shed new light on the glamorous era of World War I in aviation.
Edward Davis Lewis, son of the pilot, has organized the material and written the backgroud to put the story in context. In publishing this work, the Museo Aeronautica Gianni Caproni pays tribute to American-Italian cooperation during World War I.
