Going Solo
Going Solo

Roald Dahl's real-life wartime adventures.

"Going Solo" isn't just for fans of Dahl's children's tales; it's a chance to meet the man behind the imagination. You'll be whisked away to daring dogfights and exotic travels with the same narrative charm that captures hearts in his fiction. It's an inspiration, showing how a writer is shaped by true experiences, perfect for anyone who loves memoirs or has ever daydreamed about a life of adventure.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
