Wind, Sand and Stars by ANTOINE DE SAINT EXUPERY abridged in ten parts by JOY OSBORNE
Read by John Bennett (1)
'The aeroplane has unveiled for us the true face of the earth.' The account of a pioneer pilot flying the French mails across the continents of Africa and America and described as 'the voice of man's ceaseless challenge to the elements'.
It remains not only a classic of aviation but also one of human courage.
