"In 1956, Robert and Meryl Wells followed their dream to fly a small, single-engine Cessna from New York to their home in Buenos Aires, a distance of about ten thousand miles.

They arrived in Buenos Aires after sixteen days of flying, becoming the first known family to make the epic journey in a single-engine airplane."--Back cover.
