Intrepid Woman by Betty Lussier
A teenager on a Maryland farm when World War II began, Betty Lussier went to England to help the British fight off an impending invasion. Armed with a private pilots license, she joined the Air Transport Auxiliary and was soon ferrying planes and pilots for the RAF.
She fought to flyThen she fought to fight. Betty Loussier had a remarkable life and she wrote exceptionally well. Her writing style is something to be admired as it is clear and flowing--descriptive and evocative--yet easy to take in... like listening to an old friend." --SeattlePi
Betty Lussier learned to fly in a civilian pilot training program at the University of Maryland. After the war, she set up income-generating projects for women in Africa and elsewhere. She lives in Pacific Palisades, CA.
