The remarkable autobiography of a pioneering female aviator who left a privileged life to serve in World War II. Her father was a millionaire race-car driver who became chairman of Bentley Motors, and her grandfather cofounded the De Beers mining company. But by the late 1930s, debutante Diana Barnato had enough of her affluent, chaperoned existence and sought excitement in flying—soloing at Brooklands after only six hours’ training. Joining the Air Transport Auxiliary in 1941 to help ferry aircraft to squadrons and bases throughout the country, she flew scores of different aircraft—fighters, bombers, and trainers—in all kinds of conditions, and without a radio. By 1945, Barnato had lost many friends, a fiancé, and a husband—but she continued to fly. In 1962 she was awarded the Jean Lennox Bird Trophy for notable achievement in aviation, but her greatest moment was yet to come, when in 1963 she flew a Lightning through the sound barrier, becoming “the fastest woman in the world.” Spreading My Wings is her remarkable memoir, brimming with history and adventure.

More than 2000 women in the United States, Great Britain and the Soviet Union flew military airplanes in organized units during World War II, yet their stories are largely unknown. These pilots ferried aircraft, flew targets for ground artillery practice, tested airplanes and equipment, and many of them flew in combat. The women pilots proved that they could manage bombers and fighters as well as their male counterparts, and several later remarked that "the airplanes didn't care who flew them." Topics covered include the training of female pilots, how female flight units were developed and structured, the hazards of conflict, and how these women reintegrated into civilian life following the war.

Between Rivers: More Confessions of the Slow Learner is the authors second look (the first one being The Long Road to Grace: Confessions of a Slow Learner) at Gods grace as he leads us slow-to-learn folk through the mazes of human experience. Set in the context of the Lords Prayer, the author draws from the varied life experiences of himself and others to show our Fathers grace, his leading, and ultimately our overcoming by his grace. More than beautiful thoughts, the Lords Prayer becomes a powerhouse of meaning, showing us how to relate to people, how to hallow Gods name, how to trust, how to forgive, how to shun temptation, how to receive deliverance, and finally, how to receive our glorious entrance into Gods eternal kingdom.
