She Flies by Becky Condon Pdf

"She Flies" is a novel about a young girl who decides to try for a place among the clouds. She wanted to fly. There were many hurdles to jump, hills to climb, obstacles to work around, and pitfalls or traps to either avoid or climb out of. It wasn't the easiest course to choose for a life's work, but it was worth it to be among the clouds. At times it felt like Don Quixote tilting at windmills, but Don Quixote reminds us of the importance of honor and the fight for right, even in the face of nay-sayers and those that don't believe. This is the story of a girl that would fly, working around the obstacles, striving for excellence, and ignoring all who didn't believe.

She Flies Without Wings by Mary D. Midkiff Pdf

From a renowned horsewoman and gifted storyteller comes this groundbreaking new book that explores a powerful relationship like no other: the magical kinship between women and horses. Drawing from myth and literature, the author’s own experiences, and interviews with countless women, we learn, through women’s deeply personal stories, how horses enrich our lives and connect us to nature–making us readers of rhythm and invisible signs, helping us harness our youthful sexuality, sharing the “horsepower” we need to reach our dreams. And here we see how, for thousands of years, the deep kinship between women and horses has connected us to our most intimate feelings of delight, helped us learn to solve problems, and set our creativity free. From the poetry of Geoffrey Chaucer to the fiction of Jane Austen to folktales from around the world, She Flies Without Wings uses great literature and myth to encompass a wide spectrum of beliefs and perspectives–and creates a true celebration of speed, air, and the spectacular animal that connects us with both. Filled with the moving lessons–-about sensuality, commitment, power, nurturance, and spirituality–women riders have known for centuries, written with a loving hand by an expert equestrian, She Flies Without Wings is an eloquent paean to a pairing that enlivened history, inspired literature, and continues to enchant us all.

She Flies Through The Air by Lee Stath (Marilees) Pdf

Lee (Marilees) Stath, at the age of 88, sits quietly in the saddle of his custom built Desperado motorcycle. No longer doing "wheelies", he is content pumping iron at the gym and on the other days tearing up the turf at Scott Schreiner, the local golf course at his adopted home in Kerrville, Texas. That still leaves too much time in the evenings remembering and missing Mary. But, he says, that is the best part of the day.

If It Flies, Floats, or Flirts...turn the page by David Alan Cohen Pdf

A humorous and engaging account of the bored and dysfunctional very rich who subscribe to this lifestyle and the obvious pitfalls that ensue, as shared by the author, who has been an employee and confidant to these participants for decades. The flies, floats, and flirts lifestyle of Harp, who prefers to rent women with his famous tagline of "how much, how long, and when do we get started," is compared to that of Herschel, a wealthy industrialist from the Great White North. They fly their own seaplanes, are married, with children and grandchildren, and addicted to male erectile dysfunction medicine. Herschel enjoys companionship, be it for a week or a month, introducing these women as the "girlfriend," much to the chagrin of his suspicious wife, Sadie, who knows he is doing this but can't prove it. Harp cuts to the chase for sex, while Herschel entertains the women in his fleet of aircraft, hoping to score with the multi-mile-high club in his jet and savor a victory at sea in the seaplane. His family fears for their inheritance with each new "girlfriend" he acquires. The author has worked for other wealthy males who fly their own aircraft but can only flirt with women. Acting as tough alpha males within their own peer group, they are spineless at the thought of losing their fortunes should they ever get caught. Insanely jealous of Harp and Herschel, they lavish exorbitant sums of money on their aircraft and boats, which have become their "mistresses."

Flying Adventurers by David K. Vaughan Pdf

Aviation books were a unique and prolific subgenre of American juvenile literature from the early to mid-20th century, drawing upon the nation's intensifying interest. The first books of this type, Harry L. Sayler's series Airship Boys, appeared shortly after the Wright brothers' first successful flight in 1909. Following Charles Lindbergh's solo flight across the Atlantic, popular series like Ted Scott and Andy Lane established the "golden age" of juvenile aviation literature. This work examines the 375 juvenile aviation series titles published between 1909 and 1964. It weaves together several thematic threads, including the placement of aviation narratives within the context of major historical events, the technical accuracy in depictions of flying machines and the ways in which characters reflected the culture of their eras. Three appendices provide publication data for each series, a list of referenced aircraft and an annotated bibliography; there is a full index.

Fly Me by Daniel Riley Pdf

A nation on the verge of a new era-and a girl caught between her past and the ever-expanding present. Now a Los Angeles Times Bestseller! The year is 1972, and the beaches of Los Angeles are the center of the world. Dropping into the embers of the drug and surf scene is Suzy Whitman, who has tossed her newly minted Vassar degree aside to follow her older sister into open skies and the borderless adventures of stewardessing for Grand Pacific Airlines. In Sela del Mar, California-a hedonistic beach town in the shadow of LAX-Suzy skateboards, suntans, and flies daily and nightly across the country. Motivated by a temporary escape from her past and a new taste for danger and belonging, Suzy falls into a drug-trafficking scheme that clashes perilously with the skyjacking epidemic of the day. Rendered in the brilliant color of the age and told with spectacular insight and clarity, Fly Me is a story of dark discovery set in the debauchery of 1970s Los Angeles.
