About this Item
Description:
Very Good. Seller Inventory # 00082639597
Synopsis:
She passionately loved horses horses, flying, Africa, and men, perhaps in that order. Beautifully evocative of the forces that ruled Beryl Markham's heart, these stories... the moving depiction of a rogue horse... an adventurous flight over the American wolds in search of a lover whose plane had crashed... an exciting episode in which a pony helps her survive the charge of a wild buffalo, and other spirited tales set against the grandeur of Africa form a triumphant collection from one of the most fascinating women of our time.
From Publishers Weekly:
Written in the '40s, these eight fictions and West with the Night comprise Markham's known written work. "About horses, flying and romance, the early autobiographical stories in particular are vivid with details of African custom and landscape gleaned from the author's early life in Kenya," wrote PW , but the volume's more commercial tales are less satisfying .
