An extraordinary first-person story of a boy from the Queensland bush who survived the dangers of Bomber Command to become Qantas' last navigator. 'A wonderful book that tells a remarkable and heroic story.' AIR CHIEF MARSHAL SIR ANGUS HOUSTON AK, AFC (RET'D) The choking, chest-tightening feeling of being trapped in a burning Lancaster, enduring the uncertainty, you count down the requisite 60 seconds for the tanks to blow. Your skip has thrown off the fighters with yet another brilliant corkscrew manoeuvre but will you get your badly wounded bomber home? Gordon Goodwin was a decorated airman and an inspired leader. During World War II he served in probably the most dangerous occupation of all, flying with the Pathfinders as they led bombing raids into Germany. He undertook 32 Pathfinder missions, including nine over Berlin, and 65 missions over enemy territory with Bomber Command. But to survive his childhood was perhaps a greater achievement. Raised in harsh and loveless circumstances outside Brisbane during the Depression, his accomplishments were remarkable. This is the powerful first-hand account of Gordon's dangerous and brave war experiences as recalled for his son Paul. 'My father told me that to survive you had to surrender all hope.' That extraordinary formula followed by the men of Bomber Command allowed Gordon to not only come through the war, but to find a successful career with Qantas, finishing as its chief, and possibly last, navigator. The Last Navigator is an illuminating, compelling and ultimately uplifting insight into a time that should not be forgotten.

The ancient history of whales is rich with ancestral tales of superior wisdom, prehistoric tradition, and unending love. During the cold seasons, the pods would gather around the Pacific islands where the elders would perform this history for the young. Through haunting songs and fluid dances, stories were told of the valor of warriors, the triumph of great chiefs, and the celestial songs of a mythical tribe of whales called the Navigators. According to tradition, females are prohibited from becoming Navigators but Lani, a young, vivacious female whale, is curious to learn more. Against the will of her elders, she attempts to satisfy her inquisitive mind by seeking out a mysterious old whale rumored to have a connection with the Navigators. What she learns is more than she bargained for. Lani leaves behind her friends, her family, and her duties as a female and sets out on a quest for knowledge and truth. On her journey through the deep blue waters of the Pacific Ocean, she discovers her destiny and changes the history of whales forevermore. A story of strength, self-discovery, love, and legacy, The Last Navigator resonates with anyone who has ever desired to know more or become more in life. It speaks to the hearts of young and old, inspiring us to follow our dreams.

Whether he's dropping paratroopers over the Rhine River during WWII, opening a liquor store in Brooklyn, or returning to his ancestral home in Greece, what differentiates On the Wings of the Wind from other memoirs of "the greatest generation” is the way Lieutenant Colonel Charles Kyrie Kallas animates the breadth of his experience. There's adrenaline in his storytelling, a rare kind of candor, and audacity in his language that puts us right with him as a flight navigator perched between the pilot and co-pilot on a C47 crossing the Atlantic Ocean. “I may be a Lieutenant Colonel,” he tells us, ”but I'm really a poet at heart.” At 95 years old, he is the narrator – and Master Navigator – of not only his own story as a Greek immigrant coming of age in the United States Air Force, but also, inadvertently, the history of 20th century America. On the Wings of the Wind is for anyone, young or old, seeking to understand how others found their way, in combat and in everyday life, before technology took over.
