Customer Reviews of Gentlemen of Adventure
An excellent read. In Gentlemen of Adventure, Gann continues his tradition - weaving a "people" story around (one of) his area(s) of expertise - flying.
The characters are interesting, the plot is well developed, and I liked it. At one point I thought I had caught Mr. Gann in an historical contradiction. However - yes - Boeing did introduce the pressurized model 307 Stratoliner before Pearl Harbor.
It's not his best book, but certainly well worth a read. I preferred "The High and the Mighty" in aviation fiction, and "The Antagonists" and/or "Twilight for the Gods" in his non-flying fiction.
A minor (but obtrusive) point: My copy (Arbor House, 1983) suffers considerably from electronic spell-checking as a substitute for proofreading - in which the wrong correctly-spelled word is frequently substituted for a misspelled (or unrecognized) word.
Excellent book on friendships made for a lifetime!
This book is recommended especially for any reader with an
interest in aviation, but may also have appeal to those who
love stories of friendships made for life. Following the
characters through their adventures, joy and sorrow will
move any reader and touch them perhaps like no other book
has. It is a shame that more of this authors books are not
readily available and being published still.
