This month the Roamers Book Club read "Soaring to Glory: A Tuskegee Airman's Firsthand Account of WWII." It is the remarkable story of Lt. Col. Harry Stewart Jr., one of the last surviving members of the Tuskegee Airmen (the African-American pilots and airmen that trained in Tuskegee, Alabama). From a young age Harry dreamt of flying and his story raises the question - To what lengths would you go to achieve your dream? The Roamers discuss this enjoyable book, Harry's improbable success, their own dreams and fears of flying, and the lasting legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen.
Join us next month for "Travels with Charley" by American heavy-hitter and Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck.
