A Hunger for the Sky is a collection of women pilot biographies, authored by
Sparky Barnes Sargent. The book
features the personal stories of nine women who are irresistibly drawn to
the sky.
These women range in age from 98 to 28, and they include a professional
skywriter, airline first officer, DC-3 captain, Guinness World Record
holder, and owners/operators of a gliderport and an aerobatic school.
Each chapter is devoted to one woman; the reader will have the rare
opportunity to learn who these women were as young girls, follow them into
adulthood, learn about their attraction to aviation, and discover the
ensuing "skyways" they have chosen. Foreword by Patty Wagstaff.
