Paperback. Condición: Good. In the months leading up to the birth of her first child, Hannah Palmer discovers that all three of her childhood houses have been wiped out by the expansion of Atlanta?s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. Having uprooted herself from a promising career in publishing in her adopted Brooklyn, Palmer embarks on a quest to determine the fate of her lost homes?and of a community that has been erased by unchecked Southern progress. Palmer's journey takes her from the ruins of kudzu-covered, airport-owned ghost towns to carefully preserved cemeteries wedged between the runways; into awkward confrontations with airport planners, developers, and even her own parents. Along the way, Palmer becomes an amateur detective, an urban historian, and a mother. Lyrically chronicling the overlooked devastation and beauty along the airport?s fringe communities in the tradition of John Jeremiah Sullivan and Leslie Jamison, Palmer unearths the startling narratives about race, power, and place that continue to shape American cities. Part memoir, part urban history, Flight Path: A Search for Roots beneath the World's Busiest Airport is a riveting account of one young mother's attempt at making a home where there?s little home left.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. This volume covers major submarine campaigns during World War II, describing operations of the British, American, Japanese and Italian submarine and anti-submarine forces. Experiences of submarine and anti-submarine warfare are featured, from the decision makers in the war offices to men in the boats. The narrow margin by which Britain escaped defeat by German U-boats in the Battle of the Atlantic is examined, along with the performance of the Japanese giant submarines in the Pacific, and the triumph of the American submarines in the Pacific. Other topics include: the capture of the Enigma cipher machines; accounts of the shooting of defenceless warriors in the water; and how the huge shipping losses on the US East Coast in early 1942 were more disastrous than the bombing of Pearl Harbor.…

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. A gripping true account of submarine heroism, War Beneath the Waves is an inspiring tale of one young naval officer's leadership and courage under fire under some of the most dangerous waters of World War II. In November 1943, while on war patrol in enemy waters, the submarine U.S.S. Billfish was spotted by the Japanese, who launched a vicious depth charge attack. Explosions wracked the sub for twelve straight hours. With senior officers incapacitated, diving officer Charlie Rush boldly assumed command and led key members of the crew in a heroic effort to keep their vessel intact as they tried to escape. What followed is one of the most improbable and dramatic stories of the Pacific War. Told in harrowing detail, War Beneath the Waves is a pulse-pounding story of a submarine crew's valiant fight to save their boat--and one man's astonishing bravery and coolness in the face of seemingly certain death.…
