Description

In this thoroughly engaging and enlightening tome, Richard Pike spins the extraordinary yarn of Robert Carl ‘Moose’ Fumerton. Fumerton, a man of immense gallantry, signed up with the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1939, emerging from the crucible of World War Two as Canada’s premier night-fighter ace. Moose piloted the legendary Hawker Hurricane with 32 and 401 Squadrons, before advancing to the formidable Bristol Beaufighter and the exquisite de Havilland Mosquito with 89 and 406 Squadrons, serving valiantly in both the UK and distant shores. 

Drawing from Fumerton’s own riveting accounts, Pike—an ex-RAF fighter pilot with first-hand insights—delivers not just a biography, but a vivid reimagining of Fumerton’s wartime derring-do, layered with a treasure trove of authentic details. The outcome is a narrative that captivates and exhilarates, deftly blending real-life high-stakes adventure with a touching portrayal of an era when ordinary lads like Fumerton stood up to the Axis juggernaut and achieved the extraordinary.
