Book Reviews of Heroes of the Horizon: Flying Adventures of Alaska
Book Review: Great collection
Summary: 4 Stars
A great collection of flying stories collected to span a period of aviation history in the far north. I enjoyed the book, and thought that the author did a good job of picking the stories to reflect not only humor, but some of the dangerous aspects of aviation. A very good collection and highly reccomended.
Another good read of a seldom mentioned segment of Northern aviation is Flying North South East and West: Arctic to the Sahara
Summary of Heroes of the Horizon: Flying Adventures of Alaska
Exciting stories of 28 veteran bush pilots who flew in Alaska's golden age of aviation, from the 1930's through the 1950's.General Books
