Acceptable. 
Paperback. Softcover 15th printing 1983 North Point Press. Sparse NOTES and UNDERLINING throughout. Spine creased. Intact; cover looks good; pages bright. Great reading / research copy. 294pp. Language: English. '[A]n exceptional autobiography filled with a strong spirit, fascinating events, and beautiful words. Beryl Markham was raised by her father on a large farm in British East Africa in the early 20th century; as a child she preferred spear hunting with the native Muranis to her school lessons. At 17, when her father lost their farm and went to Peru, she chose to stay in Africa and began a highly successful career as a race horse trainer. In her 20s she gave up horses and started flying airplanes, becoming the first woman in East Africa to be granted a commercial pilot's license, then the first woman to fly the Atlantic from east to west. Lyrically and philosophically, West With the Night covers each of these parts of her life....'--Erica Bauermeister, 500 Great Books by Women.
