About this product

Product Information

In May 1930, Amy Johnson, a typist from Hull, took off from Croydon Airport with a thermos flask and a packet of sandwiches to try to beat the world solo record to Australia. She arrived, sun-blistered and with grease on her face, after weeks of flying a second-hand, open-cockpit biplane with no radio communication and the most basic of maps. Her adventures inspired a world struggling with the devastating effects of the Depression and made her into a celebrity overnight. She married Scottish playboy Jim Mollison, and together 'The Flying Sweethearts' broke records, mixed with the Mayfair Set, Amelia Earhart and Hollywood stars. But her tempestuous marriage was soon to crumble and she resumed her love affair with speed, taking up gliding and rally driving, and finding solace with a French millionaire. Her plane disappeared over the Thames Estuary during the Second World War, sparking rumours which are still being investigated today. Her body was never found.

A well researched and entertaining read.
A very good book that covers the whole of Amy Johnson's life in detail, not just the famous flights. The background gives an impression of the character and the highs and lows that shaped her personality. It is well written and moves on at a reasonable pace, each chapter adds a little understanding of both the people and the times, it certainly isn't just a dry list of dates and facts. The only minor criticism is that there is perhaps too much detail of hair, make up and frocks for the gentleman reader.A very good book that covers the whole of Amy Johnson's life in detail, not just the famous flights.
