The drawing depicts a scene of my grandfather, Alexander Gordon Tyrrell, flying in a Sopwith Camel over the English coastline outlined in a letter to my great grandmother. My grandfather, a World War 1 Flying Ace, joined the Royal Flying Corps in 1917 when he was 20 years old. He was a Canadian fighter pilot who saw service in France. He described “I went for a joyride and flew out over Southampton water. It was a beautiful sight.”
View this drawing in ALEXANDER AND HIS SOPWITH CAMEL, a children's book about my grandfather who joins the Royal Flying Corps in the First World War and flies an airplane called a Sopwith Camel in Europe.
