Two World War I recruits enlist as flyers in the ritish Army and a young woman enrolls as a nurse. Together they learn to survive the military, fly, and eat rabbits. Learning to fly, however, does not always go as planned! Their story is told in a light-hearted manner with broad appeal to all readers in the delightfully entertaining novel Maps and Chipper. Maps Medlicott is an Army soldier who decides that flying would be a much better way to serve his country. Chipper McGraw is the son of a Navy carpenter who steps into the wrong office and becomes a pilot. Victoria is a naive nurse adored by all. She cares for everyone but loves no one. The adventures of these three characters intertwine at a recruit training school in the early years of the First World War. The next two books in the series are Maps and Chipper - The Secret Aeroplane and Maps and Chipper - The Extraordinary Escape. Born in the Cotswolds of England near Stratford-On-Avon, David Gubbins now lives in Luzern, Switzerland. He based the book on a story he used to tell when he was a Royal Air Force recruit in the 1980s. He has spent 30 years working with aircraft and is currently a technical writer in Switzerland. "I write manuals and training material for modern training aircraft." Publisher's website: http: //sbpra.com/DavidGubbins

Two young men and a female nurse are caught in the middle of a global conflict. They seek to normalise their lives through affection for their colleagues and a healthy disrespect for authority. Caught in the midst of a secret government project, they heroically organise games and food for their colleagues. This story of ordinary people in extraordinary times reveals more about the characters than they would like to reveal. An aeroplane navigator, Maps is the type of man that men would like to be like, and women would like to be with. He is charged with mentoring his pilot Chipper. Victoria is an English rose, whose attitude and demeanour are shaped by a strange and dominant father, yet are tempered by the affection of everyone she meets. Maps and Victoria are irresistibly drawn to each other. However, officialdom and government rules contrive to keep them apart. Fate has other plans. The Best-Laid Plans reveals that even in the midst of a war there is much that we all have in common. (About the Author) David Gubbins grew up in the beautiful Cotswold area of England. He is now a resident in the UK city of Reading. This book was inspired by a lifetime of dreaming about and working with aeroplanes.

Meditative travel essays by Michigan author Anne-Marie Oomen that explore new landscapes across America. In An American Map, Anne-Marie Oomen, award-winning writer and self-confessed northern Michigan homebody, chronicles her recent travels across America, in essays that span rediscovered landscapes, wild back roads, vital cities, and everything in between. Oomen takes both a wide and narrow lens to her destinations, giving readers a vivid sense of each locale while finding resonances between each place and her own experiences. With each new adventure, Oomen finds her sense of self deepening and becoming more clearly rooted in the larger adventure of America. The evocative essays of An American Map consider locations across the United States, from the poetry of Alpine meadows to the terror of desert border crossings, the irony of ocean floors littered with live ordnance, and the excitement of a rural film premiering in New York City. Oomen’s warm, personal voice takes readers into the heart of each experience, as she imagines that a place like the Smoky Mountains could offer insight into the Iraq War or that a decaying war tank could help save rare turtles. Oomen proves that the value of travel is not merely in the physical place but the spiritual or meditative place it allows us to visit at the same time. Fans of Oomen’s writing, as well as all readers interested in travel writing, will appreciate the unique insights and diverse landscapes of An American Map.
