The First Woman to Fly the English Channel
Written by Marissa Moss & illustrated by C.F. Payne
The first American woman to have received a pilot's license describes her April 1912 solo flight across the English Channel, the first such flight by any woman. 32 pages
"Not a biography but a vivid presentation of events, the book begins with Quimby’s resolve to learn to fly an airplane and quickly comes to focus on her courageous Channel crossing and her experiences along the way... [This is] a memorable book portraying a strong woman." -Booklist, Starred Review (Grades 2-4)
