Wings Over Whittier

Description

Wings Over Whittier chronicles the story of Whittier’s role in the history of flight in Southern California. Its author, Lee Owens, former president of the Whittier Daily News, is qualified to address this issue as much by virtue of his enthusiasm as by his knowledge of the subject. Within the pages of his book, tales of such notables in aviation history as Milo Burchman, Spud Manning, Avery Black, and Shelley Stoody are intertwined with the history of the fledgling aircraft industry itself.
