Walter J. Boyne’s standalone novels span three decades of military fiction. The Wild Blue, his debut novel co-written with Steven L. Thompson, became a New York Times bestseller in 1986 and launched his fiction career. Trophy for Eagles and Eagles at War followed, tracing aviation history from the golden age of flight through World War II.
Dawn Over Kitty Hawk (2003) covers the Wright Brothers era, while his final novel carries an unusually candid title. The standalones share a common thread — the men and women who built American air power and the personal costs of that ambition.
