She was a very fine writer, my having read her poetic quotes from the first woman to fly the Atlantic, eating jerky on the way. She must have been, back then, what was known as a guy's guy. Amelia made the handle into a "woman's woman." Which she was. Had it not been the bad navigating luck she had flying round the world, her plane disappeared and she has never been found. This we can say: She died doing what she loved.
