New York: Ry-Gan Printing Inc, 2004. Signed Copy. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. 5x0x9. Signed by author. Inscribed and signed by author ('To: Sam - Hope this book serves as an incentive to be the best, Sept 14, 2008, Paul Roxin). Ink gift note on front flyleaf, small tears in jacket spine. 2004 Hard Cover. xv, 209 pp. From a first-time author, the anecdotes in this book record much of the aviation history of the Rochester, NY, area and elsewhere in the United States. Involved in aviation for more than 60 years, Paul Roxin captures the character, adventures and challenges of general aviation since the 1930s. In the centennial year of the Wright Brothers' historic flights at Kill Devil Hills, N.C., this book deservedly has attracted the attention of officials in the Pentagon, in Pensacola, the US Air Force Museum at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and the Smithsonian Institution. For a member of the Geriatric Pilots Association, this book is a fine accomplishment.
