A near-fine inscribed first edition of Amelia Earhart's memoir of her experiences as the first woman passenger on a transatlantic flight, on June 17, 1928. In July, 1928, Earhart was the special guest at the 12th National Exchange Club Convention, held in Toledo, Ohio, where she likely first met the Club's Vice-President, J.P. Muller, for whom this book was later presented. Muller went on to serve as President of the Club from 1929-30. Four years later, in May, 1932, Earhart would become the first woman to fly non-stop across the Atlantic. The National Exchange Club, a service organization, was a key supporter of aviation in the 1920s, and helped fund numerous endeavors related to military and commercial aviation.
