Flying Canucks III: Famous Canadian Aviators - Pigott, Peter
Clean, tight, unmarked; very light wear to corners; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; appears unread; The "flying Canucks" in this volume include 12 gravity-defying legends, such as James Richardson and Gordon McGregor, as well as as few whose exploits are less known, such as the Norwegian-born Bernt Balchen. Others include the bush pilots "Babe" Woollett and Aft Schade, and the World War II fighter pilot Donald McDonald, who flew in defence of Ceylon. The aerial achievements of Casey Baldwin and Don Muir serve as bookends of a century of aviation, and embody the unconquerable spirit of every era of flying. Packed with drama and detail, this compendium of Canada's best aviation lore is the third in Peter Pigott's Flying Canucks series.
