Summary
I Flew For China, first published in 1942, is the first narrative of an American's experiences flying in China at the time of the Japanese invasion of China and during the conflict between Communist and Nationalist forces. Beginning in 1935, author Royal Leonard (1905-1962) flew first Chang Hsueh-Liang, a Chinese warlord, then Chiang Kai-shek, leader of the Chinese Nationalists. During his 6 years in China, Leonard recounts his many adventures and provides his recommendations - given to General MacArthur - for preparing for the looming Japanese-American conflict of World War II
