Ian Darling, who was born in Newcastle upon Tyne in England, comes from an air force family. His father as well as his two uncles served in the Royal Air Force during the Second World War.

Ian spent six years researching this book, interviewing veterans in numerous Canadian cities as well as in England, France and the United States. An award winning journalist, Ian is the editorial writer at the Record in Kitchener, Ontario.

This is Ian's second book. His first was a collection of humourous essays about fatherhood entitled, Go Ask Dad: Fathers Are Nice Guys.

Ian has also taught writing courses at Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, Ontario.
