註釋Mary Walker Clark barely knew her father. When he died, he left not only the obvious void every teen would experience, but took with him scores of Indiana Jones-style tales about flying the Hump, a treacherous series of US missions that transported supplies over the Himalayas to China during World War II. It would take a chance interview with a pilot who had flown with her father in the war to launch a series of extraordinary journeys - into a shrouded past and halfway around the globe to India and China - for Clark to finally come to know the father whose absence had haunted her for decades. "Landing in My Present" chronicles the adventures of a daughter who chose to pry open a painful past while enlarging her view of an adventurous father long thought lost.
