In the year of Our Lord nineteen hundred and fifty-eight, a time which will never come again, in a country which will never exist again, a miracle took place... so begins THE SILVER FLYER, A CHARLESTON CHRISTMAS STORY. Lawrence Anderson Armstrong has created a masterful work in which harsh reality and the quirky effervescence of fate intertwine the lives two boys, their absent father and the spirit of Christmas. The beautiful old city of Charleston, South Carolina, where Lawrence Anderson Armstrong was born and grew-up, provides a Dickensian atmosphere as the story moves through the city on Christmas Eve. The characters Jack and Harry are vividly drawn. They seem to have stepped off the pages of a Damon Runyon story as tough guys with hearts of gold. Old Simon Brewer and Joe Sams add the grace and wisdom of the ages seeing life from the downward curve. Axel Caine is the vicious, heartless villain that keeps the reader wondering what will happen next. If you loved IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE, THE BEST CHRISTMAS PAGEANT EVER, MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET, and THE MIRACLE AT MOREAU, then THE SILVER FLYER is a must have book to capture the spirit of Christmas.

Between 1939 and 1945, the British public was spellbound by the martial endeavours and dashing style of the young men of the RAF, especially those with silvery fabric wings sewn above the breast pocket of their glamorous slate-blue uniform. Martin Francis provides the first scholarly study of the place of 'the flyer' in British culture during the Second World War. Examining the lives of RAF personnel, and their popular representation in literary and cinematic texts, he illuminates broader issues of gender, social class, national and racial identities, emotional life, and the creation of a national myth in twentieth-century Britain. In particular, Francis argues that the flyer's relationship to fear, aggression, loss of his comrades, bodily dismemberment, and psychological breakdown reveals broader ambiguities surrounding the dominant understandings of masculinity in the middle decades of the century. Despite his star appeal, cultural representations of the flyer encompassed both the gentle, chivalrous warrior and the uncompromising agent of destruction. Paying particular attention to the romantic universe of wartime aircrew, Francis reveals the extraordinary contrasts of their daily lives: dicing with death in the sky one moment, before sitting down to lunch with wives and children in the next. Male and female experiences during the war were not polarized and antithetical, but were complementary and interrelated, a conclusion which has implications for the history of gender in modern Britain that reach well beyond either the specialized military culture of the wartime RAF or the chronological parameters of the Second World War.

Alexander Graham Bell and his team of innovative young engineers created groundbreaking new technologies during three years of furious activity in Baddeck, Nova Scotia, in the early 1900s. The knowledge and skills of this group allowed them to innovate flight technologies which have continued to be fundamental to aircraft design. In this book, aviation author Terrance MacDonald puts together, for the first time, the full story of their achievements. Bell's unique group of engineers, a mechanical specialist and a military officer, built over twenty airplanes, which incorporated many new sophisticated technological developments. Bell's well-known Silver Dart was only one of a long line of his team's experimental airplanes. This book describes the aircraft, the people, and the communities who participated with Bell in his mission to construct a reliable and secure flying machine. Over the years the group started to lose members, and when the Canadian government refused to purchase aircraft based on Bell's experiments the reconfigured group folded. Meanwhile, one group member left to found a major aircraft manufacturing operation in the US. Bell's team carefully documented all their work, and as a consequence there are hundreds of compelling photos from this era. The book includes 60+ of these images, and offers links to early movies documenting these aircraft and their flights.
