This is a book heading toward two horizons, one to found on the latitude of history, and another that must be navigated through the human heart. Author Mary Garden travels back through the turbulence of her own startling family history to find her father, Oscar Garden, a legend of long-distance aviation who soared through any sky but crash-landed the one-way journey of his life on earth. Garden has approached this book with the same disregard for self-preservation that saw her father fly to Australia from London in 1930 in a second hand plane with only 39 flying hours under his belt. A rattling, searing, soulful story that takes flight on the Gipsy Moth wings of the Author's relentless research and willingness to pull back every curtain of this extraordinary man's life. Sometimes at her own emotional peril. Paperback Ed 2019
