From the author of the world renowned masterpiece The Little Prince, Saint-Exupery's novel Night Flight is similarly magical in its telling of the miracle of flight.
In this gripping novel, Saint-Exupéry tells about the brave men who piloted night mail planes from Patagonia, Chile, and Paraguay to Argentina in the early days of commercial aviation.
Preface by André Gide. Translated by Stuart Gilbert.
