Tales From the Lakeview (by Robert S. Grant)

Price includes shipping in Canada

This collection describes wilderness pilots, maintenance engineers, passengers and cargo hauled above Canada’s hinterlands in turbine air ambulances to radial-engine Noorduyn Norsemen. The solitary Junkers Ju 52 appears, and the author points out that this one-of-a-kind had a larger wing than Douglas DC-3s or Vickers Viscounts. Readers entering cockpits absorb fragrances of long-gone fish and beaver pelts and feel skis smacking snowbanks.

During his 66-year, 20,200-hour career (and not finished yet, he claims), Grant kept notes and photographs from around the world and shares many of them in this book.
