Description

Never Turn Back takes the reader on a journey into Kenya's past and into the life of one of this century's great adventurers-aviator Beryl Markham. Abandoned by her mother at the age of four, Markham grew up a white child in a land of lions and leopards, Masai and Kipsigis warriors. She learned early from the land and the father she idolized--but could never quite please--that the sentimental and the weak do not survive in Africa. - from Amzon
