Despite designing his own amphibious aircraft, the Gander - a machine almost as alarming looking as its horse-faced maker - ex-WWI ace Bartholomew Bandy is failing to make a fortune in his hometown.

The only work he finds is flying bootleg liquor into the USA. In desperation he stands as a local MP and in desperation they vote him in. But after spilling the beans on a bunch of government members indulging in Prohibition corruption, Bart's soon cordially hated by everyone up to the Prime Minister - can he really be naive enough to believe party propaganda that the people must be told the truth?

Industry Reviews

Praise for The Bandy Papers Series

'I enjoyed every word . . . terrifically funny' P.G. Wodehouse

'Jack does more than play it for laughs . . . The mingling of humor and horror is like a clown tap-dancing on a coffin, but Jack is skillful enough to get away with it' Time Magazine

'Funny. Very. Donald Jack has as light a touch with this fragile art as his hero has on throttle of a Sopwith Camel. Excessive corn is avoided in favour of wit and a delight in life' New York Times

'Bartholomew Bandy is the most remarkable hero (or anti-hero) since Harold Lloyd impersonated the Freshman' Chicago Tribune

'To know Bandy is to love him . . . you tend to gallop through and come hurtling out at the end panting for more' The Sunday Sun

'For those to whom Bandy is a newcomer, what a treat is in store' Toronto Star
