“Cowboys of the Sky”, by Steven C. Levi, takes you for a wild ride through the heyday of aviation in Alaska.
The book is a history of Alaska bush pilots from the 1920s to the 1960s and includes all of those stories you heard, like the Great Corpse Rush, the Arctic Bump and Harold “Thrill ‘em, chill ‘em., Spill ‘em, but no Kill ‘em” Gillam,” Levi said.
The book is available at authormasterminds.com for $12.95 in softcover and $6.95 for the ebook.
I’m looking forward to reading this. I thoroughly enjoyed the book “The Flying North” by Jean Potter because it focused on the amazing stories of the characters that built the bush plane business in Alaska. The unique environment up there created some unique characters and I can’t wait to read more about them.
