Description: "Fate is the Hunter" by Ernest K. Gann is a classic autobiography published by Simon and Schuster in 1961. This is a Book-of-the-Month selection hardcover with dust jacket. The book is Ernest K. Gann's celebrated memoir of flying and the capricious hand of fortune. The book is a nail-biting account of his early days in aviation. Gann wonders: why did I survive when so many other pilots perished? By 1938, the fledgling American Airlines had hired him as a co-pilot. For the next 15 years he flew everywhere and everything. Passengers. Air mail. War supplies to combat zones and wounded soldiers back home. When there were no maps or radio signals, he navigated by the stars. He loved flying, though many times it nearly cost him his life. Gann wrote about it all in bestselling fiction and screenplays, too. But it is Fate Is the Hunter, his 1961 memoir of life as a commercial pilot, that endures. Aviators cherish it.
