West With the Night?
What do you-all think of the flying bits in Beryl Markham's West With the Night? Evidently there is some question whether she wrote it or her boyfriend did.

Another good read, is "The Many Lives of Beryl Markham". That author suggests, that West into the Night, was a collabrative effort. It was certainly her story, but her boyfriend/husband at the time, was a ghost writer for Hollywood. She did try, but was never able to write anything near as good afterword. He maintained that all he did was "pretty it up a bit". Her education did not include much writing.
