Autobiographical about a 1930s bush pilot in Africa who eventually becomes the first person to fly east to west solo over the Atlantic.
Writing style is very lucid and rich. Enjoyable.

One of my all-time favorites. This woman led a fascinating life, and was able to articulate it in a most beautiful narrative. Each chapter is stand-alone, so it's perfect for bedtime reading, or as a book to take on vacation.
