Better flier than writer
Louise Thaden won prizes in a world men ruled. A businesswoman, professional flier, wife and mother she was among those who shown the brightest in aviation's golden age. But her book is choppy, with anecdotes bumping into one another with no transistions. Some of the anecodtes take longer to set up than to tell, and a few were no doubt more impressive in the experience...

Louise Thaden won prizes in a world men ruled. A businesswoman, professional flier, wife and mother she was among those who shown the brightest in aviation's golden age. But her book is choppy, with anecdotes bumping into one another with no transistions. Some of the anecodtes take longer to set up than to tell, and a few were no doubt more impressive in the experience than in the telling. You will get a taste of daring, discomfort and pride here, but it is more a garnish than a course to remember.

This review is from: HIGH, WIDE AND FRIGHTENED (Paperback)
A good book about a female aviator. Louise Thaden, not as famous as Amelia Earhart, but probably a better pilot. She was supported and sponsored by Oliva and Walter Beech, of Beech Aircraft Co.
