this is one of those books that i cannot give away. it is about the women piolts during WWII and how they did not get the recognition they deserved. this book rec'd a bad review on Amazon that i think was undeserved. if you like historical book and strong women you will enjoy this book as much as i did.

This is a page turner about 4 young women who are a part of the WASP's (Woman Airforce Service Pilots) during WWII. Their love of flying makes them risk their lives, determined to win their wings in a man's world. The author, Janet Dailey, has a real gift to make you feel as though you are right there with them. The time she puts into research is evident in every page. A very good read!
