Description

A comprehensive biography of Sir Charles Kingsford Smith, one of Australia's true twentieth-century legends. He was the first person to fly across the Pacific, he broke the record for the fastest flight from England to Australia, and at one point he held more long-distance flying records than anyone else on the planet. 'Smithy' was also a war hero.
