World War II leaves most of the world in ruins. Hunger and homelessness wreak havoc on past military professionals who no longer feel they have a future or direction. Torn by the loss of his wife and son, an American admiral searches the globe for the best pilots he can find. It is more than a distraction from his grief but also a way to offer these aces a way out of the rubble. He creates an air race, which brings together war birds from all over the world. Once enemies, now competitors, these madmen and women are desperate for victory. Participation guarantees transportation, papers, a thousand bucks, and travel to anywhere in the world once the race is over. Details are vague, but its enough for these broken souls. Along the way, unexpected friendships form and even love blossoms for one lucky couple. There are questions among the contestants, but even when their air race takes a dark turn, its worth the chance at a new life. The war took everything from these brave pilots; now, they race to get back what they lostand so much more.

Since publishing the original edition of A Woman’s World in 1995, Travelers’ Tales has been the recognized leader in women’s travel literature, and with the launch of the annual series The Best Travel Writing in 2004, the obvious next step was an annual collection of the best women’s travel writing of the year. This title is the eighth in an annual series—The Best Women’s Travel Writing—that presents stimulating, inspiring, and uplifting adventures from women who have traveled to the ends of the earth to discover new places, peoples, and facets of themselves. The common threads connecting these stories are a woman’s perspective and fresh, compelling storytelling to make the reader laugh, weep, wish she were there, or be glad she wasn’t. The points of view and perspectives are global, and themes are as eclectic as in all of our books, including stories that encompass spiritual growth, hilarity and misadventure, high adventure, romance, solo journeys, stories of service to humanity, family travel, and encounters with exotic cuisine.
