William Doyle Harris' military career from 1940 to 1970 paralleled the birth of today's US Air Force, as well as three wars: World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. Aerlyn Augusta Hatter was his partner in life and, in many ways, a partner throughout his career. Wings over America, by Peggy Harris Dionne, honors her parents' contribution to the "wings over America" of their generation, as well as records their life story. This story shares how William and Aerlyn grew up in small rural Texas towns in modest, almost destitute, circumstances. It tells how William finished high school at age twenty-one, attended college, joined the Army Air Corp, and went on to make the Air Force his career and calling. Aerlyn was his partner in this-a willing and adventurous traveler, anchor, and homemaker in many lands, and a gracious, accomplished lady in her own right. Inspiring and encouraging, Wings over America offers a look at one family's life and service in the military and gives unique insight into American history.

This is the first detailed study of Paul McCartney's Wings on tour in the 1970s. It covers every single concert from the University Tour of 1972, ending with the abandoned tour of Japan in January 1980. A wide variety of primary sources have been consulted, including all available audio and video recordings; press reviews; fan recollections; newspaper reports and tour programmes. The author pinpoints wider trends in McCartney's approach to touring - from the informality of the early gigs, to the spectacular excesses of the 1976 Wings over America tour. The narrative is woven around a wider overview of Wings' recording activities in the decade, covering albums such as the landmark Band on the Run (1973). The book concludes with a detailed interview with Laurence Juber, Wings' lead guitarist from 1978 until the break-up of the band in 1981. This is the third book about Paul McCartney/Wings by Adrian Allan. His previous two books were greeted with almost universal praise. Adrian Allan is a music teacher, postgraduate student, and author based in Manchester, UK.
