A poor book. Sophomorically written, better suited to youngsters. The author has a poor knowledge of the Third Reich and is heavily biased against Germans of that era. If you are interested in Hanna Reitsch find a copy of her autobiography FLYING IS MY LIFE.

I found this book to be biased against Hanna. It is quite useless. It's more of an attack on Hanna than anything else. It has personal commentary occasionally throughout the book that ruins the reading of Hanna's achievements, and is not recommended for first time Hanna readers.

It is "flying is my life" her original book, with added commentary. There is nothing really different. It ruined my Hanna experience.

As other readers have noted, this work is little more than a poorly written and biliously annotated version of Hannah Reitsh's memoir "Sky My Kingdom". Anyone with even a passing interest in either the subject or the era (or in good writing in general) would be far better off purchasing SKY MY KINGDOM, THE: Memoirs of the Famous German World War II Test Pilot, which is available here on Amazon.

Most writers write on a subject that they love or they find fascinating but in this case one cannot read this book and wonder if the author wrote an entire book to deliver a backhand blow.

i heard about the book while visiting a air in ct.musuiem at bradley air port ,i found ver intering reading finished it in one day
