â¿¿Phantom Lettersâ¿¿ follows a group of 389th Tactical Fighter Squadron pilots as they fight in Vietnam. The story is a timeless one of young men going to war, the dangers they face, how they live, and the emotional changes they undergo as the rigors of combat affects their lives and ideals. In this account of his life, author Gary Thrasher admits to finally understandingâ¿¿ after forty-some years â¿¿ the price they all paid to serve their country. Killing and conflict have left permanent marks on his subconscious, as well as the lives of the people he loves. Containing letters written home to his wife over 40 years ago, (which were kept by his wife through it all), Thrasherâ¿¿s story reveals his love for his family, but also the human being behind the gun sight of a fighter. This wide-reaching and inspiring true narrative of an ex-Vietnam War fighter pilot has something for everyone. It is a tale of battle, family, and hardships. But, most of all, it is a tale of love of family and country.

When two modern-day kids discover a grotesque secret in an abandoned mailbox, they have no idea they are about to be drawn into a mystery that began on the other side of the world. Through the help of an English genie and a phantom postman, the two children begin to communicate with another boy, a young calligrapher's apprentice who lived 125 years ago in an Indian village. Writing back and forth, across continents and centuries, the three children eventually realize the possibility of changing history by delivering three letters that were never received. If they can make sure these lost letters reach those for whom they were intended, love may be restored, the life of a kidnapped child could be saved, and a secret agent might be able to prevent a pointless war.

With almost 5 million copies sold 60 years after its original publication, generations of readers have now journeyed with Milo to the Lands Beyond in this beloved classic. Enriched by Jules Feiffer’s splendid illustrations, the wit, wisdom, and wordplay of Norton Juster’s offbeat fantasy are as beguiling as ever. “Comes up bright and new every time I read it . . . it will continue to charm and delight for a very long time yet. And teach us some wisdom, too.” --Phillip Pullman For Milo, everything’s a bore. When a tollbooth mysteriously appears in his room, he drives through only because he’s got nothing better to do. But on the other side, things seem different. Milo visits the Island of Conclusions (you get there by jumping), learns about time from a ticking watchdog named Tock, and even embarks on a quest to rescue Rhyme and Reason. Somewhere along the way, Milo realizes something astonishing. Life is far from dull. In fact, it’s exciting beyond his wildest dreams!

In the Era of Ara from 1964 through the 1974 season, a written chronicle of pre-game information, slogans, mottoes, and ideals emerged. The author was known only as the Phantom. The letters were one or two pages, written in staccato phrases, geared to thoughts that encompassed team goals and the philosophy to win. Through the past 40 years, some of the Phantom letters have been lost, but this collection, arranged from 1966 throughout, contains the great bulk of them.
