The story begins in Ponce, Puerto Rico, on Friday, March 7, 1947. Charlesville, a financier representing Frances colonial interests in Indo-China, has backed the construction of a large, high capacity helicopter intended for sale to the U.S. Army. He is now on his way to Ponce to close the deal. The aircrafts builder, Harry Baird, is a retired Army aeronautical engineer who relocated from Dayton's Wright Field to Ponce at the end of the war, and took with him several other Wright Field engineers. Since the aircraft these men built is the collateral on Charlesville's loan, the threat Charlesville holds over Harry is to terminate the project and remove the aircraft to France; something Harry will never let happen. In the wake of a mishap during air trials, the sales contract Harry has pursued in Charlesville's behalf fails to materialize. Rather than tell Charlesville, however, Harry decides on a ruse to conceal the failure, and devises a plan to fly the ship from Puerto Rico to Wright Field, a record-setting distance of two thousand miles. His purpose is to use the publicity attending the flight to force the Armys hand in offering him the contract. To help garner publicity, Harry enlists the support of Patty Symms, a twenty-four-year-old photographer who made a name for herself through her work in England during the war. But in Ponce, Patty becomes involved in a story she only set out to report. She falls in love with Harrys pilot, Don Perry. Don is a forty-one-year-old Wright Field veteran who harbors the dream of becoming the Negro Lindbergh. Already he has become Americas first African American test pilot, and already suffered the abuse of the Armys racial prejudice. Recognizing this prejudice, and seeing its effects on Don, Patty realizes that Don, more than Harry or Harrys ruse, is the true focus of her story. But her burgeoning love for Don is poignant, premised in part on the excitement of taboo, for she is white. Unable to resist caving in, Don, too, falls in love. Patty has brought out of him qualities long held in abeyance. She has humanized the man, and he has emboldened her. In their affair, each recognizes that, while the worlds stage may be set for the appearance of a black hero (Jackie Robinson arrived at the majors exactly at this time), the world is far from ready to accept them as an item. But the flight to Wright Field drives the story. By the time the flight occurs, we have seen the death of Harry Baird. We have seen the jealousy his authority and obsessive ambition invoked. The relationships between Harry and his men involve hostility, quitting, blaming, economic exploitation of minorities, and the certain theme that dreams have a price often measured in pain. And by the time the aircraft arrives at Wright Field, the men have faced the challenge that freedom entails. The flight to Wright Field raises the novel to its climax, recording the movement of the story from common resentment, through a transforming ordeal, to a common bond of compassion and love. In the sense that something happens to us all on the way, HARRY'S ARK could be likened to a pilgrimage, or an odyssey, or a homecoming, or a voyage, like Noah's, for which it is named, for it celebrates the second chance that deliverance implies. To Patty and Don, there occurs by the end of their journey a bond uniquely theirs, that we have been privileged to share, and we, too, come away with the same second chance, to keep faith with how we got to where we are.

When Harry Birch is elected to the committee of the Thurston Ramblers, Mrs Olive Jonstone, president and founder, is horrified. In her eyes Harry is not a serious walker, he prefers low-level, fine weather walks within easy reach of pubs and tea shops. Olive however is made of sterner stuff. She relishes the challenge of fell and mountain walks – whatever the weather. Her hero and role model is Mr Wainwright, but Harry sees her as a female version of Captain Mainwaring – bossy and humourless. Inevitably sparks fly between them, much to the amusement of the other members of the club during their walks in the Forest of Bowland, Snowdonia, Teesdale, the Isle of Man and the Lake District. John W. Winter has drawn on his 25 years experience leading walks in the UK and France to create the humourous novel Walking with Harry, which will appeal to walkers, ramblers and anyone who enjoys a good chuckle.

New from Magnum Photos member Harry Gruyaert, a collection of photographs of airports and people in transit. Alongside American photographers such as Saul Leiter, Joel Meyerowitz, Stephen Shore, and William Eggleston, Harry Gruyaert became one of the first European pioneers to explore the creative possibilities of color photography in the 1970s and 1980s. The previous decades had elevated black-and-white photography to the realms of art, relegating the use of color to advertising, press, and illustration. Gruyaert’s work suggested new territory for color photography: an emotive, nonnarrative, and boldly graphic way of perceiving the world. Harry Gruyaert: Last Call highlights the photographer’s signature ability to seamlessly weave texture, light, color, and architecture into a single frame with his photographs taken at airports. These photographs beautifully record these liminal, yet reliably inhabited spaces in a striking and sometimes surprising fashion.

Colonel Harry G. Canham made unfathomable sacrifices, spending over three decades away from the comfort of home on dangerous missions to protect and defend America. He knows about military preparedness, global strategy, and combined operations in the coalition war against fascism waged in air over several diverse theaters of operations. He displayed physical courage, flying top secret weapon and combat missions, aiding in paving the way for peace. Colonel Canham served during World War II, Korea, Resrves, NATO Operations, and Vietnam as pilot, director, and commander and flew twenty-two thousand hours night missions. During Colonel Canhams thirty-two years of service, he earned numerous medals and decorations, but his main objective was all about victory. He didnt court attention and never flinched from an assignment. The chronological air force tree branches he had built were records that represented the spirit and ideals of the heart of a young Illinois boy making a decision in 1942. For Colonel Canham, he made it home, but not unscratched. After he recovered from a serious Vietnam injury, it never entered his mind to quit and continued to fly eighty-six more missions. Harrys military journey is unique of a modest pilot who wished not to tell of his accomplishments but just a pilot doing his duty.
