Learn moreAmelia Earhart’s autobiographical book The Fun of It: Random Records of My Own Flying and of Women in Aviation covers Earhart’s life through May 20–21, 1932, “when Miss Earhart, alone in a Lockheed Vega monoplane with a single Wasp engine, negotiated 2,026 miles through storm and fog from Harbor Grace, Newfoundland, to a cow pasture on the outskirts of Londonderry, Ireland. The flight set a transatlantic record of 14 hours, 56 minutes … and stirred such public adulation that she confided, ‘I’ll be glad when the zoo part is over.’” (ANB)
Amelia Earhart (1897–1937) was an American aviator, author, and a champion of the advancement of women in aviation. She was the first woman to make a solo flight across the Atlantic Ocean and the first woman to fly nonstop, coast-to-coast across the US. She attempted a flight around the world in 1937 but disappeared near Howland Island in the Pacific Ocean.
Pamela Almand is a SAG/AFTRA voice actor and audiobook narrator with multiple awards and nominations from the Audio Publishers Association’s Audie Awards, Society of Voice Arts and Sciences’ Voice Arts Awards, and AudioFile magazine’s Earphones Award. A former international 747 captain for Delta Airlines, Almand has herself flown single-engine aircraft (including a tiny two-seat Cessna 152!) across the Atlantic. So she has a very special passion for narrating Amelia Earhart’s story. She lives in Atlantic Beach, Florida, with her husband, Amos.
Reviews
“Miss Earhart knows a great deal about [aviation], especially as arts and business and her pages are full of experiences, the information, the little things and the big things the public likes to know about.”
