Ultimately refusing the flight herself, she sought out "the right sort of girl" to join the crewan attractive, American aviator. "Call Denison House and ask for Amelia Earhart," replied the pilot. That phone call marked the beginning of a historic career. In the conversation that followed, Earhart was named "Commander of the Friendship," launching her into a remarkable path in aviation, advocacy, and authorship. Promoted and published by her soon-to-be husband, G.P. Putnam, 20 Hrs. 40 Min. tells the story of her becoming the first woman to cross the Atlantic by air.

Despite his apparent self-deprecation, Thomas went on to have a successful career as a playwright. No fewer than four short films were released with this title within two years of this publication (but not crediting Thomas). Barrett H. Clark was an exceptionally important figure in modern American drama: aside from authoring and translating many plays, he served as the longtime literary editor for the drama publisher Samuel French, as well as director of the Drama League of America. He helped guide playwrights, such as Eugene O'Neill and Maxwell Anderson, and encouraged American dramatists to tell real stories of working-class people, using language derived from everyday life. An uncommon title.
