In the late 1930s, Rosie Conner is a young female daredevil pilot, and her hero is the famous pilot Amelia Earhart. Several years after Earhart disappears during a flight across the Pacific, Rosie and her husband Chris try to complete her unfinished flight. Unfortunately, they find themselves recreating the journey too accurately, as they also crash into the Pacific. They are eventually rescued by the crew of a Japanese ship; however, it is only after they have boarded the ship that they realize they are not guests but prisoners. The year is 1941, and they are treated brutally in the months leading up to the infamous battle at Pearl Harbor. As Rosie and Chris deal with peril and adventure on an island occupied by the Japanese, World War II becomes a larger threat to the world. Follow the adventure of a lifetime, and see the world through the eyes of a pilot whose bravery knows no bounds, who lives a life of adventure and risk-taking.

In February 2015, a plane leaving Boston for Fort Lauderdale crashed into the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of South Carolina. Eight months later, the detritus from the crash and some of the human remains have been scraped off the bottom of the ocean, thus beginning the crux of the various investigations. In addition to the gaggle of federal agencies that are trying to piece together what happened to flight 4273 mid-flight, taking one hundred ninety-seven passengers and crew to a watery grave, the aerospace company that manufactured the plane is also trying to sort through the rubble. Lansing Aerospace, in trying to defend itself against a massive class-action lawsuit and billions of dollars in victim’s compensation, hires a prestigious Boston legal firm to aid in derailing what would be the demise of the lauded company. Warren Dennihan and his partner Lisa Sheed are hired by the influential legal firm to delve into what caused the fateful crash in February, a monumental task if ever there was one. Are they working for the enemy? Were they hired to facilitate a cover-up? Is it even possible that two investigators, without any aerospace training, can solve such a quagmire? Or was that the plan all along? The sixth novel in the Warren Dennihan series takes Deni and his partner through the complexities and bureaucracy of Flight. It is a wild and bumpy ride.

Discover the mysterious, controversial, and sometimes downright eerie history of flights that didn't end as planned. The history of aviation is full of accounts of history's most spectacular flights. But what about the ones from which someone failed to return? - A celebrated millionaire--who also happened to be the world's foremost aviator--lifted off in a small plane one clear morning in 2007 and disappeared. - The glamorous son of a beloved fallen president took off on a hazy summer night in 1999 and plunged himself and two others into the Atlantic Ocean. - A US Navy blimp landed one Sunday morning in 1942 in the middle of a city street in California with no one aboard. Some of these "non-returns" occurred because of errors in judgment; others were intentional, and some resulted from causes still unknown. Get the full, meticulous account of the fascinating people involved in these flights, the mistakes they made, and the ways in which their "flight of no return" affected the world. Pilot and aviation writer Steven A. Ruffin covers the entire 230-year span of manned flight in all types of aircraft through war and peace. Balloons, blimps, biplanes, jets, and spaceships have all suffered mishaps over the years. Don't miss the mystery, adventure, intrigue, and a sprinkling of the supernatural and extraterrestrial in Flights of No Return.

Vladimir Vysotsky (January 25, 1938 - July 25, 1980) was a poet, singer, and actor whose work had an immeasurable and lasting effect on Russian culture. His songs explored a vast variety of topics, ranging from comedy to social and political commentary. With the impressive poetical quality of his lyrics, he quickly outgrew the label of "a bard." In the time when many poets and performers were under heavy scrutiny and censorship by the government, Vysotsky dared to speak his mind and due to his immense popularity with the Soviet people, he was left largely ignored by the authorities. Vysotsky died of a heart attack on July 25, 1980, though many speculate that alcohol and drug use may have also contributed to his early death. In the short span of twenty years, Vysotsky had produced nearly 2000 songs and poems. To this day, he remains an icon for the Russian people and has had a deep influence on the Russian musicians of today. This dual-language collection of his work strives to give a glimpse into the creative mind of Russia's greatest singer.

Shortly before embarking on her attempt to circumnavigate the globe, Amelia Earhart confided to a friend, “I have a feeling there is just about one more good flight left in my system and I hope this trip around the world is it.” This book is the product of The Earhart Project, a thirty-four-year investigation of the Earhart tragedy by The International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery. TIGHAR investigators had no agenda. They were not out to advocate, excuse, honor, or impugn. They saw the Earhart disappearance as an aviation accident and reasoned the answer to its cause and outcome should be discoverable if they could find, assemble, and analyze the relevant data. To understand why she died it was necessary to strip away the myths and sentimentality that have grown up over the years and examine the hard truths behind how Earhart's trip around the world came about and why it went so terribly wrong. The U.S. Navy and Coast Guard were major players in the 1937 flight, disappearance, and search for Amelia Earhart, and in the aftermath. The story of the pressures and frustrations the services faced and the mistakes they made contain valuable lessons for today's commanders. Gillespie's first book, Finding Amelia – The True Story of the Earhart Disappearance (Naval Institute Press, 2006) chronicled what was known at that time. This new book updates the story with important new information from historical documents discovered since then and also provides extensive prequel and sequel narratives that complete the saga and give new perspective to the life and death of an American icon.

Although Amelia Earhart remains the best-known female pilot of the 1930s, Jacqueline Cochran stood as the more important aviation pioneer and America's top woman pilot. Among her many accomplishments, Cochran was the first female aviator to win the Bendix Air Race, to fly a bomber, to break the speed of sound, and to participate in astronaut training. This revealing biography explores Cochran's childhood in an impoverished Florida mill town, her early career as a pilot, and her role in creating and leading the WASPs during World War II. It also chronicles her postwar exploits, including her participation in the NASA space program, her unsuccessful 1956 bid for Congress, and her surprising reluctance to crusade for the advancement of women. This detailed profile, removing Cochran from Earhart's shadow, firmly establishes the aviatrix as a pivotal figure in the history of women in aviation and in war.

WHERE MAN MEETS MAGIC AND MACHINE... The year is 2050. The power of magic and the creatures it brings have returned to the earth, and many of the ancient races have re-emerged. Elves, Orks, Mages, and lethal Dragons find a home in a world where mana, technology, and human flesh have melded into deadly urban predators. And the multinational mega-corporations that run the world hoard the only thing of real value—information. For Sam Verner, living in the womb of the Renraku conglomerate was easy, until his sister disappeared and the façade of the corporate reality began to disintegrate. Now he wants out, but to "extract" himself he has to slide like a whisper through the deadly shadows the corporations cast, into a completely different world where his first wrong move may be his last...the world of Shadowrun.
