"Outside a tight circle, very few people knew of the dangerous missions flown by American pilots during World War II to bomb the war factories of Austria and Hungary. In these missions, the pilots also flew over the beautiful mountains and vineyards of Slovenia, where the inhabitants lived on their quiet farms and practiced the same traditions that they had maintained for centuries. Farewell, Silver Bird is the story of what happened when the young man piloting one such plane unexpectedly arrives and literally drops from the sky into this setting. This sudden appearance triggers discovery, passion, magic, humanity, and more than anything, a deeply personal and fascinating unweaving of a tapestry of secrets and of all the elements that contribute to a sense of self, identity, and history."--Page 4 of cover.
