Description: Schiffer Wings Across The Pacific The Courageous Aviators Who Challenged and Conquered The Greatest Ocean Wings Across the Pacific tells the epic struggle of the generation of pilots who made the dream of crossing the Pacific, a reality. The feats of Lindbergh and others who crossed the Atlantic have been more celebrated. But the Pacific was to flying what Everest was to mountain climbing: the biggest, most implacable, most irresistible challenge on earth. To fly the Pacific meant aiming for tiny islands amid seventy million square miles of ocean, and the slightest mechanical failure – or error of judgment – could mean a watery grave. Amelia Earhart is only one of many who vanished into the Pacific without a trace. Shop Historylives / Modeldetailer for Additional Book & Magazine Selections..Save With Combined Shipping, Thanks !!!
