Straight on Till Morning: The Biography of Beryl Markham

Mary S. Lovell. St. Martin's Press, $10.95 (0pp) ISBN 978-0-312-01895-5

Beryl Markham, the pioneer aviator and author of West with the Night, had many lovers, including her friend Isak Dinesen's husband, Bror Blixen, and lover, Denys Finch-Hatton. Although British freelance writer Lovell intrudes into the story, PW called this ``an engrossing biography of a legendary beauty and achiever.'' Photos. (July)
