Description
A Memoir by Edna Bell-Pearson
A 2020 Kansas Notable Book--When World War II makes her way to southwest Kansas, Edna Bell-Pearson’s life was forever changed. After meeting her husband Carl Ungerer—a pilot stationed in Liberal for the war— Edna’s life whirled around her, as she moved to the opposite corner of the state, and she became one of the first private female pilots in Kansas. Edna’s story, taking place over the course of five short years, tells of Ungerer Flying Service, a family-owned and operated business stationed in Marysville. As the business is born and takes on the challenges of life, Edna learns to appreciate the importance of the little things: hunting and fishing trips, a good housekeeper, and crisp, autumnal days without wind.
