Summary
Kansas-born girl, Amelia Earhart discovers the thrill of aviation at age twenty-three. Within twelve years she goes on to win the Distinguished Flying Cross for being the first woman to pilot a plane solo across the Atlantic Ocean. Amelia and her husband/business partner George Putnam have an enduring marriage that could not be broken by her determination to fly, nor her passionate affair with Gene Vidal. At age thirty-nine, she sets out on an attempt to circumnavigate the globe, an adventure that catapults her into aviation myth
