If you were to put all the characters, drama, and seemingly outlandish adventures contained in Antarctica's Lost Aviator into a movie script, it would be rejected as too unbelievable. But Lincoln Ellsworth was read and did live the life contained in this biography. -- Flight Journal Maynard presents the various controversies, along with in-depth documentation. A must read. -- Clive Cussler [Praise for Jeff Maynard] A simply fascinating and inherently riveting read from beginning to end. Exceptionally well researched, written, organized, and presented by Maynard (who is a member of the Explorers Club and a former President of the Historical Diving Society). -- Midwest Book Review Maynard teases out the skeletons in Ellsworth's closet while layering obstacle upon obstacle. -- Publishers Weekly Readers who grew up devouring the Tom Swift adventure novels, with their flying boats and subocean geotrons, will find much to like in Maynard's engrossing biography of Lincoln Ellsworth. Filled with a sumptuous cast of real-life adventurers, this is an engrossing and stirring tale. -- Kirkus Reviews
