Perhaps Chichester Will Always Be Remembered As A Great Yachtsman, But His Boats Were Actually Named After An Aeroplane-because Flying Was His First Love, And His First Real Claim To Fame. In The 1930s He Made Aviation History With A Series Of Pioneering Solo Flights In His De Havilland Gipsy Moth, Beginning-like A Novice Mountaineer Tackling Everest-with An Epic Flight From England To Australia. Solo to Sydney is the story of that flight. Hardback with dj, first edition 1982, 208pages, good condition
