Lowell Thomas may be best known as a newscaster, but to millions of Americans he is equally famous as a foreign correspondent, lecturer, biographer, explorer, and business executive. Since his first flight in 1917, he has visited every remote corner of the world and logged more passenger miles than any man who ever lived. In this autobiography, Lowell Thomas comes as alive in print as he does on the air. Thomas provides a vivid account all the way from his boyhood days in Cripple Creek through his later exciting adventures, wide wanderings and strange encounters all over the face of the earth. - Jacket flap.
