A thrilling aviation adventure over the Amazon jungle in this collection of stories from Michael Bleriot.   Picking up from his previous books - Memories of an Emerald World, The Jungle Express, and Flying Naked - Michael Bleriot brings four new stories of young men and planes in the untamed skies of South and Central America.  
    
    Pilots have compared Bleriot's writing to that of Ernest Gann, author of the aviation classic Fate is the Hunter, in that both writers through words alone are able to put the readers in the cockpit to experience for themselves the excitement and terror of flying.   Whether you're a pilot with thousands of hours in the sky, or a passenger who has never ridden on anything but a commercial airline, or even if you've only seen a plane flying overhead, Wings of Blue will thrill you and make you wonder if you shouldn't head south of the border for a little adventure of your own!All Rights Reserved
