Description

As a member of the renowned Flying Doctors Service, Dr. Anne Spoerry treated hundreds of thousands of people across rural Kenya over the span of 50 years, earning herself the cherished nickname “Mama Daktari” - “Mother Doctor.” Yet few knew that what drove her from post-World War II Europe to Africa was a past marked by rebellion, submission, and personal decisions that earned her another nickname - this one sinister - while working as a “doctor” in a Nazi concentration camp.

In Full Flight explores the question of whether it is possible to rewrite one’s past by doing good in the present and takes listeners on an extraordinary journey into a dramatic life punctuated by both courage and weakness and driven by a powerful need to atone.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"No one I know has a more spiritual understanding of Africa than John Heminway, and In Full Flight you are taken into the soul of the continent in a way that will astonish, inspire, and linger. It is a literary safari of the highest order." (Tom Brokaw)
"A book that movingly celebrates the indomitable human spirit.... John Heminway has turned his remarkable investigative skills to unraveling the incredible history of Africa's famed Dr. Anne Spoerry. Reading more like a novel than a biography, In Full Flight paints a portrait of a courageous woman, haunted by a dark past, who looks to Africa to heal." (Jane Goodall, PhD, DBE, and Founder of The Jane Goodall Institute)
"John Heminway's In Full Flight left me quite literally stunned, not only by the story itself, of a woman whose journey took her from the heart of Nazi darkness to broad, sunlit uplands of Africa, but also by the author's extraordinary journalistic gifts. A book to chill and warm the human heart." (Carl Hiaasen)
