Publisher's Synopsis

Record Flights And Give Em Hell! is a memoir written by Clarence D. Chamberlin, a famous American aviator who made significant contributions to the aviation industry during the early 20th century. The book chronicles Chamberlin's experiences as a pilot, from his early days as a barnstormer to his record-breaking flights across the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.Chamberlin's most notable achievement was his 1927 transatlantic flight with Charles A. Levine, which took place just weeks after Charles Lindbergh's historic solo flight. Chamberlin and Levine's flight was the first to carry a passenger across the Atlantic, and they set a new distance record of 3,911 miles. The book also details Chamberlin's other record-breaking flights, including his solo flight across the Pacific Ocean in 1931.In addition to his aviation accomplishments, Chamberlin was also a veteran of World War I and worked as a test pilot for several major aircraft manufacturers. The book provides insight into the early days of aviation and the challenges faced by pilots during this time.Overall, Record Flights And Give Em Hell! is a fascinating account of one man's journey through the world of aviation and his contributions to the development of modern flight.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
