About the book

Airman's Odyssey

From midnight mail runs over the Andes to desert crashes and wartime skies, three masterworks capture early flight.


Three classic adventure stories, reminders of both the romance and the reality of the pioneer era of aviation: Night Flight; Wind, Sand and Stars; and Flight to Arras.


Saint-Exupéry chronicles the opening of postal routes across North Africa and South America, following airmen through mountain squalls and desert sands. The volume balances the solitary discipline of night flights against the quiet fellowship forged among comrades at remote outposts.


Group 2-33 pairs the rigorous duty of low-altitude reconnaissance with the unsparing chaos of ground fire over Arras in May 1940.


Introduction by Richard Bach. Translated by Lewis Galantière and Stuart Gilbert.


  • Against the Odds: When Henri Guillaumet crashes near Laguna Diamante in midwinter, he struggles for five days and four nights through twenty-below snowdrifts without ropes or food.

  • Survival Memoir: Downed at one hundred and seventy miles an hour on a scorched plateau of black pebbles, the author and his mechanic face dehydration under the desert sun with only a single orange and a few drops of dew.

  • Aviation History: Jean Mermoz charts unexplored air routes across the Sahara and the Andes, mastering dangerous pitch-black landings guided by the faint glimmer of three gasoline flares.

  • Military Aviation: Stationed in a schoolhouse during the retreat of 1940, Major Alias directs twenty-three aircrews tasked with monitoring armored columns beneath relentless antiaircraft fire.
