A thrilling narrative, this is the unforgettable true story of the 1929 air race that legitimized female pilots. Jessen tells the stories of the first women pilots, gutsy and colorful adventurers who fought for the right to become part of the male-dominated world of aviation. Photos. www.alibris.com
