Daring aviators take the skies by storm in this historical romance filled with unconventional women--and the men strong enough to love them. Saint Louis, 1923. The golden age of flight has just begun, and pilot Mattie McAdams refuses to cede the skies to cocky flyboys. She longs to perform daring stunts in her family's flying circus, but the men in her life stand in her way--including the show's star performer, Leo Ward. They can wring their hands all they want; Mattie won't stay grounded for long. In the Great War, Leo Ward watched his best friend and Mattie's twin brother, Alfred, perish in the skies over German territory. Since then, he's vowed to protect the McAdams family, taking on the most perilous stunts himself. But the skies are too big for any one man. Mattie joins a female-dominated flying circus, kicking off a tantalizing aerial dance as the two pilots make efforts to one-up each other in the skies across America. As planes and passions soar, can Mattie and Leo look beyond their egos to see the great heights they might reach together?

The Aviatrix tells the inspiring story of Louise McPhetridge Thaden and of her triumphs and tragedies as one of the pioneering women pilots of the 1920s. The press called them "lady flyers" and "sweethearts of the air," but Louise referred to herself as an aviatrix.Born in 1905, on a farm in Bentonville, Arkansas, Louise attended college at the age of 15, changing her major three times over the next five years. She knew she was destined to do something important but didn't know what it was until she discovered the adventure of flight. Louise persevered through all of the hardships she encountered, from learning to master the controls of aircraft made out of wood and canvas, to fighting sexist critics who claimed that flying was a man's profession and women belonged in the home.Although The Aviatrix is a work of fiction, it includes many historical events, including the first Women's Cross-Country Air Race. It also includes well-known pilots Amelia Earhart, Florence "Pancho" Barnes, and Wily Post, as well as historical figures like Will Rogers and Howard Hughes. But, most of all, The Aviatrix is the story of one woman's courage to be the best at what she loved to do most in life, and that was to fly airplanes.

Flying is terrifying to many people, and piloting an airplane is a domain seemingly dominated by men. When flying slowly but surely came to scare her to death, Kim Jochl set out to overcome her fear by earning a pilot's license. She figured the more she knew, the less she'd be scared. In theory that was true; in practice it wasn't so simple. She knew it would be an incredible challenge, and one that might end in failure. But the encouraging, helpful, accepting, and genuine culture of aviation helped Kim achieve her goal and discover the joy of flying. The Aviatrix is a candid, sometimes funny, definitely scary, firsthand look into one woman's journey to becoming a pilot in the challenging mountain terrain of western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee.

In Queering the Moderns, Anne Herrmann revisits the narrative of literary modernism and the historical uses of the term "queer" to explore the emergence of identities specific to modernism. "Queer" in the modernist period (1910-1945) means "strange, odd, out of sorts" and although it begins to refer to those who are queer sexually, it does not yet police a hetero-homosexual divide. It means crossing boundaries in unexpected directions, across the Atlantic, across the color line, across literary conventions that dictate autobiographies can't be written by someone else. Six memoirs that rely on cross-gender and cross-racial identifications are discussed within their specific cultural contexts so that female aviators (Amelia Earhart and Beryl Markham), "lesbian" auto/biographers (Virginia Woolf and Gertrude Stein) and male auto-ethnographers (James Weldon Johnson and Earl Lind - Ralph Werther) begin to "queer" the traditional spaces of modernism.

After gaining her pilot's licence at 20, she set up the first female joyriding business in 1931 with engineer Dorothy Spicer and took 33,000 passengers up for a whirl, clocking up more than 2,000 hours overall. Pauline went on to command the inaugural women's section of the Air Transport Auxiliary (ATA) and achieved equal pay for her women pilots. She enabled them to fly 'Anything to Anywhere', including Tiger Moths, Hurricanes, Wellingtons and – their firm favourite – the Spitfire. Pauline Gower: Pioneering Leader of the Spitfire Women is a story of bravery, fortitude and political persuasion. Pauline was a clear leader of her time and a true pioneer of flight. She died after giving birth, at only 36; a life cut tragically short, but one of significant achievements. Pauline left a huge legacy for women in aviation.

From her first taste of the air when she joined Bert Hinkler in the cockpit for a joy ride in 1928, Lores Bonney was hooked. With her aviation licence and the support of her husband, she took to Australian and international skies and braved the challenge of long-distance flying. Taking Flight draws from the National Library of Australia’s rich archives and manuscript collection to present the tale of Lores Bonney, the first woman to circumnavigate the Australian continent by air, the first woman acknowledged to fly from Australia to England, and the first solo pilot to fly from Australia to Cape Town, South Africa. Aviation writer Kristen Alexander intimately illuminates the woman behind the audacious pilot, exploring her highs and lows and struggle to gain and maintain her place as one of Australia’s great aviation pioneers.
