Synopsis
With the full force of culture and convention ranged against them, women have nonetheless been taking to the air almost from the first. And because of all the obstacles they have faced, these women in aviation have had to show a rare degree of courage, ambition, and skill. ..Stars of the Sky celebrates these women--the wildly daring, the pioneering, and the implacably determined--and their remarkable achievements. In profiles illustrated by aviation artist Sharon Rajnus, accomplished writer and flight instructor Ann Cooper introduces readers to fifty female stars of the sky. ..Among these women are many firsts (first black female aviator, first female aircraft designer, first woman to fly solo around the world, first female Airline manager, and first female Thunderbolt pilot). Rajnus also profiles women who have made singular contributions, from a flight surgeon and a daredevil sky-writer to an Eskimo Bush pilot and air traffic controller, as well as record setters such as a long-distance record holder, a Hellcat test pilot, and a golden age Air Racer. ..The pictures and stories in Stars of the Sky bring these women, their personalities, their passion for flying, and their legend-worthy experiences to clear, colorful, and vibrant life., Fifty illustrated profiles celebrate women who have made their mark in aviation, from female firsts to record setters to everyday heroines., With the full force of culture and convention ranged against them, women have nonetheless been taking to the air almost from the first.

- e***6 (721)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufExcellent five star seller...best of the best. Very high quality packing, prompt shipping. Seller's product descriptions and photos can be relied on to be accurate and with full disclosure. Prices are reasonable and compare favorably with others offering similar products. The difference is the service. Buyer continues to be pleased...just purchased two long-out-of-print but new never opened books about railroad structure modeling. Seller promptly refunds overpayment of ship cost. Another plus!

The books looked perfect. They were packaged very well and arrived undamaged. The seller combined shipping and issued a refund for the excess charges. I will continue to purchase from this seller. This was a problem free transaction.
