Soft cover. Condición: As New. As New; Mid-winter medical evacuations from the Antarctic; determined and often tragic searches for lost people and planes; daring feats of aviation pioneers; amazing lifestyles of those who choose to live and fly in the Far North - these are the against-all-odds success stories in Shirlee Smith Matheson's new book. On the other side of the flying field are those who used flight as an opportunity for personal escapes or hijacking capers, or whose fates were suddenly decided by bad luck - engine failure, unpredictable weather changes, or chances taken with unfamiliar machines and terrain. The remarkable stories in Amazing Flights and Flyers encapsulate nearly every human emotion and scenario, and range from the early days of the 20th century to the present. Signed by Author(s).…

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. The book and jacket are in very good condition, little shelf rubbing, small tear at top of front cover of jacket. Appears to have a signed inscription from the photographer John W. Heintz on the title page but otherwise the text and images inside appear clean and clear of any stains or handwriting throughout. 'Pat Strakowski, working over a period of approximately three decades, has produced a body of totally original work. Her sculptures - created from papier-maché adorned by found objects as varied as ancient Japanese coins, Mexican ceremonial trinkets and wasps' nests from the local neighbourhood - have few parallels in any artistic tradition. Strange creatures abound in the artistic world of Pat Strakowski. Warriors sprout deer horns to enhance their communication with the gods. Cats with serpent tails guard the household, lurking beneath the staircase to attack intruders. Deformed angels mourn the agonies of war. A young girl, suspended perpetually in mid-air, performs timeless skipping rituals. A birdlike creature, screaming in anguish, removes its own head - but maybe it's not in anguish after all; perhaps it's all about imagination pondering freedom from heavy loads. By placing Strakowski's work in the perspective of myth in the contemporary world, Andrew Oko has developed insights that would not be possible simply by observing the sculptures by themselves, without reference points. Drawing on the ideas of thinkers as diverse as Roland Barthes, Jacques Derrida and Aldona Jonaitis, Oko has created a framework that greatly enhances even a casual appreciation of the art underlying the art of Pat Strakowski. Complementing Oko's study and analysis, the sensitive photographs taken by John W. Heintz constitute an innovative pictorial study that is a creative achievement in its own right.' 132 pages. 11.4 x 11.25 inches. May require additional postage.

Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. SIGNED BY LORI CAYER on title page; Clean, tight, unmarked; very light rubbing to back cover; otherwise absolute minimal wear; appears unread; Lori Cayer's poetry soars and dives among tempests of desire, death, love and loss, pulling readers/listeners into the vortex of the storm and leaving us breathless in its aftermath. Her poems are merciless in their hunt for prey, from domestic minutia to the fluid flow of maelstoms. A father's knife "so thin it hums in the hand," a tornado pulling a ponytail into "whirligig, exclamation point, drill bit, blender." Attenuations of Force is tremor and aftershock, a howl into the wind, an unzipping of language. Signed by Author(s).…
