Bernt Balchen: Polar Aviator

Glines. He set polar flight records, organized a series of daring wartime air operations, and became a leader in Arctic aviation. But despite these achievements, Balchen saw his public image and military career undermined by the famous and influential Adm. Richard Byrd. This is a full and compelling portrait of a pilot overshadowed in his lifetime by Byrd but whose expertise and vision continue to guide trans-Arctic aviation. 310 pages, 50 photos, 6"x 9", hardcover.
