About this product

Product Information

First to fly the Atlantic-the navigator's story in his own words Brown was a Scottish aviator, born in Glasgow in 1886. Although he was initially commissioned in the Manchester Regiment during the First World War, he subsequently transferred to 2 Squadron, Royal Flying Corps as an observer. He was shot down twice in action eventually being captured by the Germans. After the war his association with the Vickers company resulted in the proposal that he should become navigator for the pilot, John Alcock in an attempt to cross the Atlantic Ocean non-stop, flying in a modified Vickers Vimy heavy bomber. In June, 1919, the pair took off from Newfoundland and, after a world first flight of 1,980 miles in 16 hours & 12 minutes, they landed safely in an Irish bog. Brown and Alcock were both knighted by King George V for their achievement. This book, written by Brown chronicles that extraordinary adventure. Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.

Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
