To the Ends of the Earth – Memoirs of a pioneering aviator
Two books in one volume, “To the Ends of the Earth: Memoirs of a Pioneering Aviator” combines Sir Alan Cobham`s first-hand accounts of two of his most memorable journeys, round the Cape and to Australia and back. Undertaken in the 1920s, his memoirs of these fantastic adventures reveal the trials and tribulations of travelling to the farthest ad darkest corners of the globe in a de Havilland type 50 and a seaplane in a time when global travel was in its infancy. With its accessible style and irrepressible optimism, this book is a must for any lover of the travel writing genre.
