This family tale of an Italian immigrant and his thirteen-year-old grandson gives you an intimate look at historical aviation events during the early to mid-1900s. You will understand why flying is still in the Lucchesi blood. The story is rich in flying tidbits and has heartwarming and tender scenes around the grandfather's death in 1957.
Written in the first person narrative, with Eugene as the protagonist, memories, facts, and fiction create a first-class read for historical buffs and aspiring pilots of all ages. The author is the granddaughter of the beloved Nonno and the sister to the experienced pilot and main character, Eugene. Aircraft and family photographs are additional highlights.
