This might be a very serious account of the capable, routine performance of public function by seasoned career bureaucrats. But it isn't. It's the lampooning misadventure of recent engineering graduate Bill Rossy, who only wants to succeed in his first job, pay off his education debt and start forming a career. Instead, corporate tyranny and highly irregular, probably illegal, government practices send the tyro around the world on a wild chase of covertly bogus duty and self-preservation. Follow the young subordinate as he drifts out to sea in Maryland, is threatened by carnivorous donkeys in the South Atlantic, escapes an attack of dump dogs in the ruins of ancient Greece, survives a port bombing in Korea and dances for chicken in th Philippines. Let him guide you on a bizarre journey through the lows of post-college poverty to the highs of inexplicably lucrative public service. Enjoy the trip.

Harry's War: A World War II Memoir, the story of the USAAF's 30th Photo Reconnaissance Squadron, comes to life with 150 photographs.
Harry's War is an engaging personal story about World War II aviation. Captain Harry Runyan served with the 30th Photo Reconnaissance Squadron, US Army Air Forces, in the European theater, collecting hundreds upon hundreds of photographs during his duty overseas. These stunning, thought-provoking images of planes, places, men, and battlefields come together to tell the tale of an oft-overlooked, yet extremely vital fact of how the Allies achieved victory in Europe. Harry's War shares stories about logistics, aerial reconnaissance, aircraft, jets, and rockets, and the men behind the men behind the guns -stories delivered by an engineering officer who later became a leading member of the NASA team that developed the X-15 and the Space Shuttle. Award-winning author and military historian John V. Quarstein melds Runyan's letters, field notes, and photographs to provide this inside look at one American soldier's service "Over There."
Praise for HARRY'S WAR
"There are many books and stories about the squadrons and fighting men of the Second World War; yet, rarely comes a story told from the point of view of a young engineering officer, in a fast-moving reconnaissance squadron, tasked with keeping pace with the front lines. When Harry Runyan's son, Gerry, first shared the original photographs taken by F-5 pilots during their deployment, I was fascinated by the snapshot they provided of the war from the air and on the ground. I knew this had to be documented. Armed with Harry's memories, noted author and historian John Quarstein brings this story and its history to life." - Joseph C. Ritchie Jr., former F-14 Naval Flight Officer; Research Engineer, NASA Langley Research Center; Board President, Virginia Air and Space Center, Hampton, Virginia
"The further removed we are from the Second World War, the less we understand what the Greatest Generation did. Harry's War gives us a unique perspective, one that informs us of the sacrifice, courage, and dedication of the Americans who fought with our allies to bring the world's most evil empire to an end. Having watched my father train and go off to this war in the Pacific, Harry's War brings back many memories from those critical years. Thankfully, Harry Runyan wrote down his story so every generation can know what it was really like to live in this era and fight in this war." - Tuck McAtee, Lt. Col., USAF (Ret.), Vietnam veteran and recipient of DFC with Oak Leaf Clusters, fighter pilot and test pilot with 265 combat missions

Описание: In Second Sky, Runyan intertwines the life and writings of the Apostle Paul with the spiritual journey of a modern suburban woman confronting the broken world. Second Sky wrestles with the deeply personal challenges presented in Paul's letters and experiences: putting on the new self, burying oneself with Christ, and counting all as loss while driving through snowstorms, reading horrific headlines, and bathing the family dog. These are not simple poems of religious inspiration; they are steely encounters with the living God. Runyan invites us to work out our salvation in rusted Cadillacs, operating rooms, and packs of wild coyotes. Meanwhile, Paul runs from the collapsing walls of his prison cell toward shipwrecks and vipers, meeting us on our own roads to Damascus, the earth breaking open to a second sky of faith.

A novel--inspired by the most celebrated regiment in the Red Army--about a woman's sacrifice, courage, and love in a time of war.
Russia, 1941. Katya Ivanova is a young pilot in a far-flung military academy in the Ural Mountains. From childhood, she's dreamed of taking to the skies to escape her bleak mountain life. With the Nazis on the march across Europe, she is called on to use her wings to serve her country in its darkest hour. Not even the entreaties of her new husband--a sensitive artist who fears for her safety--can dissuade her from doing her part as a proud daughter of Russia.
After years of arduous training, Katya is assigned to the 588th Night Bomber Regiment--one of the only Soviet air units comprised entirely of women. The Germans quickly learn to fear nocturnal raids by the daring fliers they call "Night Witches." But the brutal campaign will exact a bitter toll on Katya and her sisters-in-arms. When the smoke of war clears, nothing will ever be the same--and one of Russia's most decorated military heroines will face the most agonizing choice of all.

Описание: "An engaging, engrossing debut."--Greer Macallister, USA Today bestselling author of The Magician's Lie Bound for a new continent, and a new beginning. In her illuminating debut novel, Aimie K. Runyan masterfully blends fact and fiction to explore the founding of New France through the experiences of three young women who, in 1667, answer Louis XIV's call and journey to the Canadian colony. They are known as the filles du roi, or "King's Daughters"--young women who leave prosperous France for an uncertain future across the Atlantic. Their duty is to marry and bring forth a new generation of loyal citizens. Each prospective bride has her reason for leaving--poverty, family rejection, a broken engagement. Despite their different backgrounds, Rose, Nicole, and Elisabeth all believe that marriage to a stranger is their best, perhaps only, chance of happiness. Once in Quebec, Elisabeth quickly accepts baker Gilbert Beaumont, who wants a business partner as well as a wife. Nicole, a farmer's daughter from Rouen, marries a charming officer who promises comfort and security. Scarred by her traumatic past, Rose decides to take holy vows rather than marry. Yet no matter how carefully she chooses, each will be tested by hardship and heartbreaking loss--and sustained by the strength found in their uncommon friendship, and the precarious freedom offered by their new home. "An absorbing adventure with heart."--Jennifer Laam, author of The Secret Daughter of the Tsar
