About this title: Drawing on a recently discovered long-lost radio message, Elgin and Maria Long re-create the events inside the cockpit of the doomed Electra flown by Earhart and her navigator, Fred Noonan. The authors debunk the myths that Earhart and Noonan were captured by Japanese soldiers or cannibalistic island tribespeople. Instead, they offer overwhelming evidence that the plane ran out of fuel short of its Howland Island destination.

"Anyone who has an interest in the disappearance (spelled crash) of Amelia Earhart and Fred Noonan should give this book a try. The Longs research efforts and documentation are what is truly noteworthy, however, I did not come away with the feeling that they solved the mystery. They also shed some light on Earhart's, all too forgotten navigator, Fred Noonan, who in my opinion did as good a job as a navigator of the time could be expected to do given the selected destination, Howland Island. Conclusion: Well documented but inconclusive theory. The Longs offer up a wealth of information for those trying to still solve the mystery!"
