About this listen
The inspiring, true story of the first female pilots taking their rightful place in the exciting world of aviation.
In 1929, 19 gutsy women blazed out of the darkness by setting out from California in propeller-driven planes, each competing to be the winner of the first female cross-country air race. The hazards were many, from disastrous weather to possible sabotage, but by facing the dangers with skill and determination, the racers thrilled the nation and pioneered a new future for female pilots and women's rights.

"This is not just an excellent story of female pilots at the beginning of the 20th century, but a stirring history of the early years of aviation." (Booklist)
