Capt. Jepp and the Little Black Book is the amazing rags-to-riches story of the son of Danish immigrants who did more to make flying safer than anyone else on the planet. But it is also the thrilling tale of barnstormers, wing walkers, the earliest days of the giant airline companies, and the charismatic man who lived it all.
Here is a fascinating look at the beginnings of aviation in America and the colorful daredevils who risked their lives to entertain crowds, carry the mail, and carry passengers commercially. It is also the rags-to-riches story of the amazing life of Elrey B. Jeppesen--Capt Jepp--daredevil barnstormer and wing walker of the 1920s, intrepid airmail and airline pilot of the 1930s, creator of an aerial navigation system in use today worldwide, and founder of a business that grew from a ten-cent little black book into an international, multi-billion-dollar enterprise without equal.
Every pilot will enjoy this story of aviation pioneer, entrepreneur and businessman Elrey Jeppesen, who literally made the skies safer for everyone. -Stephen Coonts
