Polar bears in the high Arctic. Butterflies on Mexico's mountains. Gray whales in Baja California. Golden toads in Costa Rica. Parrots in the West Indies. Albatrosses off the Olympic Peninsula. Whether on their own or as tour leaders for the Smithsonian Institution and other organizations, John and Gloria Tveten have encountered the world's wildlife with an unfailing appreciation not only for animals of all kinds but also for the places those animals call home. For more than two decades, from some of the most beautiful and fascinating locations in the Western Hemisphere, the Tvetens brought their adventures alive for the readers of their weekly "Nature Trails" column in the Houston Chronicle. Here, with contemporary notes and updates, the Tvetens have gathered a sampling of their favorite, most recommended, most unforgettable trips to see wildlife and nature, which also include the Guatemalan Highlands, the International Crane Foundation, the Andes, the Grand Canyon, and Utah's Redrock Country.

The hijacked super jumbo Royal World Airlines 798 airliner, flying non-stop from Sydney to London carrying over 500 people, crashes in fog on the approach to Heathrow whilst using the latest European satellite navigation system. Peter Talbert, electronics expert, is retained by CrossRisk Insurance to establish whether the cause was pilot error. Unusually, there are leaks of the voice recorder tape from the Air Accident Investigation Branch to the press, suggesting partying by crew just before flight. An Inquiry is called to take over the investigation of the accident. Talbert flies to Sydney and finds one of the girls at the party and on Maroubra beach, in the middle of the hot summer night, the girl helps him to track down what actually happened. Talbert's girl friend, a London solicitor is not too keen when Peter has to fly to Sydney a second time to persuade the girl to give evidence at the Inquiry in London but eventually Talbert is able to disclose the real cause of the accident at the Inquiry.

Ever since man has taken to the air, flight has exerted a strong, almost irresistible, appeal on many to follow a life of flying not only to allow it to be more than just a hobby, but to make it one's avocation. Many who have followed this call have written of this journey and how they pursued the various forms of flying their first flight, their first job flying for hire, and a look back at their career. In The Outer Whorl, Essays by an Airline Pilot, Neal Schier takes a slightly different tact in recounting his pursuit of flying, because paradoxically, flight itself was just one of the attractions that led him to follow the call that so many before him had heeded. His path was not the simple, almost linear progression, which has marked many aviators' careers. Neal, in a continuum of twenty related essays, examines the unease of a quotidian life in a sterile office and the desperation that set in at a young age to pursue something outside of a normal career path. To see the world and learn of one's strengths and weaknesses while forging a profound appreciation for his fellow crew members. Through this pursuit came a deep appreciation for the allure inherent in aviation and a respect for the uncertainty that flits and flickers behind the beautiful mask that flight wears. This appreciation extends far beyond just the attraction of flight however, as he charts the admiration of strength and resolve that he finds in his fellow pilots, flight attendants, and other airline employees after the horrors of 9/11 an admiration won by the close work in an airliner's cockpit during hours of fatigue, stress, and challenge. Introspectively, but not solipsistically so, Neal traces his development first as a military aviator and then as a commercial airline pilot. His nontechnical writing puts the reader alongside him in the cockpit as a witness to the mind-set of a pilot as he charts a course around the world a course that often leads to self-examination and what one learns about self and others. His narrative details what it was like to lose nearly twenty years of work as his airline struggled with bankruptcy and near liquidation. He raises the question if the turbulence of the career was worth the years of sacrifice and dedication and thus, touches on an idea that thousands of the wondering and wandering souls of aviation continue to ask. His reflection and memories bring a surprising answer that is framed from the recurring themes of beauty, appreciation, and admiration.
