From the coauthor of the national best-seller
The Wild Blue comes an exciting and roman-
tie story of the pioneering men and women
who devoted-and sacrificed-their lives to
conquer the sky.
Now, in his splendid Trophy for Eagles,
Walter Boyne has written a realistic and vivid
historical novel about the golden age of avia-
tion and the daring men and women who
competed for prizes, jobs, love, and glory. At
the heart of the story is the fierce rivalry
between two men in an America between the
wars. Frank Bandfield is a courageous boy
wonder who possesses a unique combination
of flying and engineering skills and an idealism
that often gets him into trouble. Bruno Haf-
ner, a German World War I ace who misses the
thrill of battle, is a dangerous and unscrupu-
lous flyer and businessman with a killer
instinct. Over the course of a decade, as other
aviators in their group, including the young
Charles Lindbergh, the enigmatic Howard
Hughes, and the reluctant aviatrix Amelia
Earhart, take to the sky to set records for dis-
tance, speed, and human endurance, these
sworn enemies will fight*it out in the air and
on the ground, in flying competitions, busi-
ness, and, finally, in war.
