good bio. would have benefitted from spell check and less use of exclamation marks. some photos not cited as to source. also no photo sources were listed in bibliography.

I found this biography of Tiny Broadwick fascinating. Glad I finally got it out of the to reac box and read it.

I picked up this short book at the Air Force Museum gift shop in Dayton, Ohio when traveling.
I found Broadwick's journey from teenage mother to pioneer parachute performer fascinating. There are plenty of photos of Broadwick included. From meeting the Wright brothers to becoming a respected aeronautic artist, Tiny Broadwick was a giant in her field.
