Synopsis: The history of manned flight spans just under a century, but it includes some of the most glorious adventures in human experience. This title offers a selection of airborne adventures from authors such as Charles Lindbergh, Roald Dahl and Martin Amis. Like previous "Adrenaline" titles, "Wild Blue" draws upon first-hand accounts of life-and-death adventure - all by writers known for the grace and power of their prose. Many of these are pilots themselves, veterans of combat, crashes, space walks and other airborne epics. These pilots have been amongst the boldest explorers of the last century - and their stories prove it.
