Who hasn?t daydreamed of soaring above a South American rainforest, landing a float plane on a pristine Alaskan lake, or piloting a commercial airliner? Flights of Adventure introduces the exciting, often harrowing, lifestyles of stunt pilots, fighter pilots, wing walkers, and men and women who brave the elements in the most barren places on the planet. Wingwalker Carol Pilon routinely steps out of an airplane 1200 feet above the ground, exposed to 160 mph winds. Tom Holton faces a life or death decision while flying over a remote Peruvian town. Should he crash into the jungle canopy or ditch the plane into the Amazon River and risk death by piranha, crocodiles, or drowning?

Paul Derocher explores the bitter cold of Antarctica, flying scientific expeditions into the most inhospitable place on earth. Ken Larson introduces Golma, a heroic airplane in the east African desert. The ten stories in this book are touching, humorous, exciting, and often dangerous or miraculous.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - An eclectic and seminal collection of poetry from the Tudor period Songs and Sonnets(1557), the first printed anthology of English poetry, was immensely influential in Tudor England and inspired many major Elizabethan writers, including Shakespeare. Collected by pioneering publisher Richard Tottel, it brought poems of the aristocracy verses of friendship, war, politics, death, and love into common readership for the first time. The major poets of King Henry VIII's court, Sir Thomas Wyatt and Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey, were first printed in the volume. Wyatt s intimate poem about lost love that begins, 'They flee from me, that sometime did me seek,' and Surrey's passionate sonnet 'Complaint of a lover rebuked' are joined here by a range of intriguingly anonymous poems from the Tudor era that are both moral and erotic, intimate and universal.For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.
