Lowell Thomas Jr.

"The result of conversations between Lowell, Tay and Lew is the book, LOWELL THOMAS JR. FLIGHT TO ADVENTURE: ALASKA AND BEYOND. The title rings with the same wide-eyed excitement as many of the previous books written by Lowell and Tay since they were married in 1950. The pages inside reveal the extraordinary life Lowell, Jr. has led and the important role Tay has played as his partner in adventure." —Anthony Wellman, 2014 edition of The Dutch Treat Club Annual Book
“. . . a high-spirited autobiography of Lowell Thomas Jr. (b.1923), reporter, bush pilot, fifth Lieutenant Governor of Alaska, filmmaker, and conservationist devoted to preserving Alaska's beautiful wilderness. With the assistance of award-winning journalist Lew Freedman, Thomas speaks of climbing an Alaskan mountain at age sixteen, flying around the world on his honeymoon, meeting the fourteen-year-old Dalai Lama, and much more. His lifetime of accomplishments, exploration, and appreciation for nature's beauty make for a thoroughly engaging and inspirational true story, highly recommended.” —James A. Cox, Midwest Book Review “Lowell Thomas Jr. has lived a life of exploration and adventure ranging from the heart of Africa to Alaska's highest peaks. His powerfully written and evocative reminiscences provide a reading experience that is to be relished from start to finish.” —Colleen Mondor, author, The Map of My Dead Pilots “Lowell’s adventures are an inspiration for all ages. He proves that a person can do anything they make up their mind to do and be successful at it.”—Shari Hart, Executive Director, Alaska Aviation Museum
