Author’s Bio: ROD LEWIN was born in Brisbane, Australia. His acclaimed autobiography “Steel Spine, Iron Will”, wherein he narrates his recovery from paralysis after a near-fatal plane crash, has been in constant demand for over two decades. Rod has spent the last thirty-five years as a professional aviator. He has experienced all manner of adventure as a true ‘knight of the air’, from operating seaplanes on the Great Barrier Reef, the far outback of Western Australia, the U.S. Virgin Islands and Greece, to airline flying in DC-3s, 727s and 737s in the U.S. The thrilling tale of high drama in his new novel, 'The Escalante Enigma', is drawn from some of his own astonishing exploits.
