The Passion and Pride of Flight
As the son of a WWII Pilot, I was raised with stories of flight. No one has captured the essence of the people and the machines like Ernest Gann. I am on my third paperback version of this book. Never have I had such incredible mental pictures as those conjured up by this book. If I had to choose 5 books to take to a deserted island forever, this would surely be one of them.
Ernest K. Gann is back!!
I am so glad Ernest K. Gann is back and thrilling a new audience! I read every book he wrote when I was a teenager -- including
Fate
is the
Hunter
-- and loved every one. I can still remember the bumps I got at the ending of The High and the Mighty, and his books about barnstorming pilots put you right in the pilot's seat. Every book he wrote is a five-star. Are there any plans to re-publish the rest of his books?

Doesn't get any better than this.
Amazing stuff, beautifully written.
A classic "Page-Turner"
I first read "
Fate
Is The
Hunter
" around 1970, and have just re-read it again (for about the fifth or sixth time). I found it to be just as compelling a page-turner now as I did more than three decades ago. Ernest Gann was an enormously talented story-teller. He had the ability to pull his reader into the cockpit, to share with him some of the events he experienced and so flawlessly describes. Vicariously sitting beside the author, the reader comes to understand and feel the accuracy of Gann's premise that Fate ever lurks in the mists, ready to crush the unwary---or unfortunate. This is a great book by a great author. A "must read."
