- Description or summary of the audiobook: Pioneer aviatrix Jessie ''Chubbie'' Miller made a significant contribution to aviation history. The first woman to fly from England to Australia (as co-pilot with her close friend Captain Bill Lancaster), she was the first to fly more than 8000 miles, to cross the equator in the air and to traverse the Australian continent north to south. Moving to America, Miller was a popular member of a group of female aviators that included Amelia Earhart, Bobby Trout, Pancho Barnes and Louise Thaden. As a competitor in international air races and a charter member of the first organization for women flyers, the Ninety-Nines, she quickly became famous. Her career was interrupted by her involvement in Lancaster's sensational Miami trial for the murder of her lover, Haden Clarke, and by Lancaster's disappearance a few years later while flying across the Sahara desert.
