Skybound is a detailed account ofone man'sefforts to challenge and tame gravity through the most intimate mechanisms of flight, starting with hang gliding and graduating through various steps to single-engine aircraft. This is a book either for those adventurous spirits who seek to push their human limitations or those too shy or risk averse-- the many of us who relish adventure from an armchair. Roger Jones brings us as close to flying without fear of falling as possible, his memoir an exploration of the search for a more perfect union between human capabilities and the sky. --Richard Taylor, author of Fathers
