The first was made sitting on the wing—the last in a cockpit." Gray was the first Virginia woman aviator to fly from Virginia soil and along with her husband George A. Gray traveled all over the eastern United States as barnstormers in their Wright Model B. Gray knew many of the major aviation pioneers including Amelia Earhart Charles Lindbergh Glenn Curtis and the Wright brothers and she records their stories in the present work. She also discusses her contemporary woman aviators including Elinor Smith Ruth Nichols Ruth Elder Camp Opal Kunz and many others. Gray writes in the foreword: "'Jack' is my nickname. I have borne with it flown with it and now I feel like it. Edith is my real name but on only three rare occasions have I used it" including "when I visited Ethel Roosevelt at the White House in 1908." The present work was also praised by Lieutenant Commander Earle Ovington the first U.S. Air Mail pilot and Congressman R. Walton Moore. Shenandoah Publishing House, hardcover
