We all know The Little Prince, but do we know the author? 00:00:06
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry was a French writer, a poet, and he was also an aviator. 00:00:12
He took his first airplane when he was only 12 years old. 00:00:22
Since that moment, he fell in love with aviation. 00:00:27
He served the French military service in the air forces for a very long time, 00:00:32
So he was very glad when finally, in 1922, he obtained his pilot wings. 00:00:38
Around this time, he also began to write his adventures as a pilot. 00:00:48
When in 1943, his most famous book, The Little Prince, was published. 00:00:55
He had also written many, many, many other books. 00:01:01
Some of them, for example, are 00:01:10
Night Flight, 00:01:13
The Silver Sheep, or South and Main, his first book. 00:01:16
Antoine de Saint-Exupery was born in Lyon, in France, on the 29th of June in the 1900s. 00:01:23
He belongs to an aristocratic family. 00:01:37
When he was young, his father died, and he went moved by his mother and also his four siblings to a relative chateau in the east. 00:01:45
Saint-Exupery had a privileged life and carefree. 00:01:58
And then, in 1912, he took his first trip in an airplane. 00:02:04
It was a moment that has a lasting and profound impression on him. 00:02:11
He receives an early education at Catholic schools in France. 00:02:17
Exupery went to a boarding school in Switzerland. 00:02:24
After the outbreak of World War I, he came back to France in 1917. 00:02:27
and after he attended a college prep school in Paris, before entering to the Naval Academy. 00:02:42
However, a poor student, he failed and he studied architecture. 00:02:51
He studied architecture at the École des Beaux-Arts Arts. 00:03:01
Despite his disappointing rejection from the Naval Academy, 00:03:10
Saint-Exupéry was given the opportunity to realize his dream of flying during his compulsory service in the military 00:03:14
In 1921, he learned to fly when he was a McCain in the army 00:03:24
And become an official pilot in the following year 00:03:31
Then, Saint-Exupéry, he left the Air Force in 1922 00:03:36
too, but Saint-Exupéry returned to fly and developed a new passion. 00:03:45
He began to write stories about his experiences as a pilot, because he had a lot, and published 00:03:54
his first book in 1926, whose name was The Aviator. 00:04:01
On 1943 Saint-Exupéry came back to France and returned to his squadron because he wanted 00:04:13
to fly despite his age and infirmities. 00:04:19
On July 31, 1944, he left Corsica for a recognizing mission over France. 00:04:23
He never returned. 00:04:29
His body and his plane were never found, so he was considered dead. 00:04:31
His mysterious disappearance became an international notice and caused lots of speculations until 00:04:35
year 2000, when a squad driver found his plane, which lately was known as Saint-Exupéry's 00:04:41
plane. 00:04:47
Even nowadays, his death continues being a riddle. 00:04:50
