Infidelity Gun Running & Other Tales

$27.99
Sign in or become a Readings Member to add this title to your wishlist.

An interesting and eclectic collection of fact and fiction from this emerging new writer. Fourteen short stories drawn from the author's vast treasure trove of memories gathered during a lifetime, much of which was spent in aviation, both military and civilian. The subjects are many and varied and set in locations around the world. There are a couple of stories from the Cold War in the 1960's. The author was a frontline pilot in Germany and became deeply involved in the events of that time. He was also caught up in Operation Grapple, Britain's nuclear testing programme in the Pacific. Christmas Island is a tale about that. A gun running incident in North Africa is the subject of another story, and there are several about infidelity and the like involving the airline industry. A bisexual encounter, and a near disaster, is the story line for A Close Call In Tahiti and there are several tales set in Hong Kong. New Zealand's aerial topdressing industry is described in The Greening Of Northland, and there are several stories set in the South Pacific. I am sure you will find this initial collection a good read.
