Kylie Kalishek joins me to share some family history and a new book she wrote. She will be having a presentation and book signing on Thursday March 26th at the Escanaba Public Library. The book is called, "All Of Them But Fear." It's a story about her great aunt who at 15 years old became a wing walker over 100 years ago. Many in Kylie's family were part of the air circus. I am so fascinated by this, could you imagine people doing this today? Especially at the age of 15. Here aunt's were pioneers, women flying planes, climbing around on them, all without a parachute. Kylie has pictures and videos to make you feel like you stepped back in time. Kylie also shares some unusual events in her life and obstacles she's overcome. I can't thank her enough for being so open and sharing her truth. We had to cut this short so I hope to have her back soon.
So much of our history is lost, maybe some of it has been deliberately erased... but that's maybe for another show!
