Book description
Why read it?

I’ve chosen this biography of Pauline Gower, the woman responsible for opening opportunities for British women pilots and ensuring equal treatment, not because it’s the most recent, but because it is the most poignant. It was written by one of the twin sons she gave birth to the day before she died.
Fahie says he spent forty years trying to get to know his mother, and it's that sense of sharing his journey of discovery that I found absorbing. Fahie also had access to photos that were not usually shared, which gives Pauline a face that is not usually shown…
From Helena's list on women in aviation in WWII.
