The Sky My Kingdom
Book (italiano):
Reitsch, a test pilot for Germany during World War II, presents her memoirs, which describe how she left medical school to become an aviator, held the world gliding record for women, and worked as a stunt pilot for films before she volunteered for the German air force. As Hitler's favorite test pilot and a devout Nazi, she flew several large bombers and met many prominent individuals of the Third Reich. She recounts the accidents she had, injuries, awards, and experiences flying top officials during the last days of the war. The autobiography was originally published in German as Fliegen-mein Leben in 1951 and is translated here by Lawrence Wilson. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
