From the Publisher
Bartholomew Bandy has become an air ace. On the ground he causes
disasters wherever he goes, but in the air he's deadly, shooting
down dozens of German planes in the course of thrilling aerial
combats. To the amazement of all who know him he becomes Lieut.
Col. Bandy and thanks to his new rank he meets all sorts of people,
including his fiancee's memorable family. As a handy (but
disposable) war hero, he encounters a number of hair-raising
adventures, not to mention English plumbing and an unforgettable
honeymoon night. That's Me In The Middle is exciting, full
of military action in the trenches and in the air, and, as it
continues to flirt with history, very funny.
