Born to Fly by Vernon Benner
$20.00
Secondhand paperback good condition.
A privately published New Zealand wartime memoir by Vernon Benner of Te Puke, recounting his experiences as a pilot during the Second World War. Published in 2000, this slim paperback offers a personal account of New Zealand war service, aviation, and life after wartime, with particular appeal for readers interested in NZ military history, WWII pilots, local Bay of Plenty history, and aviation memoirs.
This is a scarce local publication rather than a mass-market title, making it a lovely find for collectors of New Zealand personal histories and wartime reminiscences.
