About this listen

 Immerse yourself in the captivating life story of Amelia Earhart, one of Americas most celebrated heroines. Presented by Briand, this riveting biography reveals Earhart as a unique figure, woven from rare strands of qualities. She possessed an unquenchable curiosity about life—its ideas, books, people, places, even the mechanics of things. A lover of sports traditionally reserved for boys, she was driven by an unyielding desire to experiment and try new things. Her zest for life was paradoxically intertwined with a deep desire for solitude, and she carried an ever-present sense of fatalism towards death, which she countered with an extraordinary will to live. - Summary by Ciufi Galeazzi
