Wolfgang Langewiesche wrote the book “Stick and Rudder” in 1944.
43 years ago my flight instructor required me to read this book. I came across this in Audible at the typical price most pilots appreciate, free! (if you have an Audible account). My son is finishing up on his PPL, so I told him to listen to it, and I also just finished up listening to it. My son and I have had some great discussions concerning avoiding stall spins and differences between good and bad piloting skills.
I encourage everyone to get this book. The information in it is as valuable now as it was back then. And it even provides some humor, since some terminology, etc was different back then.
