Wholesale 'Amy Johnson' - The Definitive Biography

The definitive biography of pioneering aviatrix, Amy Johnson, who flew single-handed to Australia in 1930 in her open Gipsy Moth biplane. This great account of her life by Constance Babington Smith tells of her daring adventures and her topsy-turvy personal life, the Johnson family having allowed her special access to Amy's letters so we hear first hand about her dramatic and troubled life. Sadly the cause of Amy's death in 1941 still remains a mystery as the plane she was flying disappeared in Herne Bay in as yet unexplained circumstances. The book is heavily illustrated with photos of her life; many with special permission of the Johnson family.
