Description
"In 1928, a young social worker and hobby pilot named Amelia Earhart arrived in the office of George Putnam, heir to the Putnam & Sons throne on the hunt for the right woman for a secret flying mission across the Atlantic. In this cinematic account, Laurie Gwen Shapiro emphasizes Earhart's multifaceted human side, her struggles, and her authentic aspirations. The Aviator and the Showman is a tale of adventure and hubris and a complex portrait of a marriage that shaped the trajectory of her life"-- Back cover.
