Wing Commander (Ret.) J.F. "Stocky" Edwards (known as "Eddie" during his war years) has been an active artist for the past 15 years. His work has been featured on the cover of Airforce Magazine and he is indeed a rarity. The facts rank this modest, quiet gentlemen among the top fighter pilots of the war. His book "Kittyhawk Pilot" is simply fascinating and provides a valuable insight into the struggle of the British, Canadian, Australian and other Allied air and ground forces which resulted in the Axis defeat of North Africa. The first territorial victory in the European theatre, it was a beginning on the long road back to peacetime.
