The Flying Reporter
E-text prepared by Roger Frank and Sue Clark
"The Flying Reporter" by Lewis E. Theiss is a fictional adventure story written in the early 20th century. The narrative revolves around Jimmy Donnelly, a flying reporter for the New York Morning Press, as he embarks on thrilling aviation missions, capturing stories from the skies. Set against the backdrop of a time when American newspapers were increasingly utilizing aircraft for news coverage, the book promises excitement and drama that takes readers into the world of aviation reporting. At the start of the story, we are introduced to Jimmy Donnelly as he receives a letter from his friend Warren Long, a fellow pilot, who recently jumped from his flaming plane while trying to save airmail. The letter includes a piece of Warren's parachute, a prized keepsake for Jimmy. Inspired by his friend's near-death experience, Jimmy is determined to uncover the full story and set off on an assignment to gather details about the incident. Throughout the opening chapters, we see Jimmy's enthusiasm, skill in flying, and his desire to prove himself as a capable reporter as he navigates the challenges of his job. The narrative hints at further adventures awaiting him, immersing readers in the fast-paced life of a flying reporter. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
