Wind, Sand and Stars

by Antoine de Saint Exupery

  • TRAVEL NARRATIVE
  • 1967
  • PAPER
  • 229 PAGES
  • FAVORITE

St. Exupery's luminous account of flying early postal routes throughout the world in the 1930s, including the classic tale of his crash in the Libyan desert. A man of action with the soul of a poet, his memorable stories of flying over South America, Europe and the deserts of North Africa are compelling, specifically the one about going solo in a storm over the Andes.  (DES11, $13.95)
