Synopsis
One Foot on the Ground is a collection of short pieces on early aircraft in America and aviators, as experience by Paul I. Roxin, himself a pilot and flight instructor prior to World War II. Roxin's 60-some stories are highly readable, lively and entertaining, and gives the reader a bird's-eye view of what early aviation was like in this country, from its rudimentary beginnings through World War II. The articles frequently cite the exploits (and sometimes misadventures) of well-known persons such as Charles Lindbergh, Douglas MacArthur, lowell Thomas, and James Doolittle, as well as others of lesser fame such as "Getaway Gertie," Marvin "Pee Wee" Horstman, and Doug "Wrong Way" Corrigan.
