Flight into Danger

Flight into Danger

By: John Castle,Arthur Hailey

When George Spencer, a salesman trouble-shooter, managed late one night to catch the last seat on a charter plane at Winnipeg, there was nothing to distinguish the flight from hundreds of others which take place all over the world every day. The fifty-odd passengers were ordinary, intelligent people out to enjoy themselves at an important ball game. The crew were well-trained and efficient. The aircraft was a four-engined luxury plane of the type you would see at any large airport. True, they were late arriving at Winnipeg from Toronto due to local ground fog, but there was nothing alarming in that. It was soon after they had begun the last leg of their journey, across 1,500 miles of rugged mountainous country to Vancouver, that things started to happen - things that could happen anywhere. The reader shares the nerve-wracking tension of an appalling emergency nearly four miles above the earth, learns something of what it means to attempt to control a modern airliner, and follows step by step the urgent developments on the ground. Flight into Danger is a unique collaboration between John Castle and Arthur Hailey, two writers who have each established for himself a considerable reputation for fully-documented, completely realistic suspense. It was originally published in the USA under the title Runway Zero-Eight.

The Final Diagnosis

By: Arthur Hailey

The #1 New York Times–bestselling author’s classic novel of life and death drama inside a major American hospital—“easy to read and hard to stop reading” (Kirkus Reviews). Change is in the air when a new board chairman sets out to modernize and expand Three Counties Hospital in Burlington, Pennsylvania—a once venerable institution whose standards have slipped. Dynamic Dr. Kent O’Donnell, a Harvard Medical School–trained surgeon, accepts the board’s offer to lead and reform the rundown, disorganized hospital because he wants to make his mark on the world. As medical-board president, O’Donnell faces his greatest challenge in Dr. Joe Pearson, Three Counties’ elderly head pathologist. Once an excellent diagnostician, Pearson is now out of touch with the latest research and procedures in laboratory medicine. But if the hospital lets the imperious doctor go, it risks losing an important benefactor’s financial support. Arthur Hailey’s fascinating, dramatic, and scrupulously researched story reveals both the professional, personal, and romantic aspects of an administrator-surgeon’s life, as well as the tragedies and moments of joy that occur every day in a hospital—a place where life often begins and ends.

Hands-on Log Homes

By: Arthur Thiede

This third book by popular log-home authors Cindy Thiede and Art Thiede brings the scale of log homes back to practical reality. It features owner-built homes, recycled log homes, and historical renovations. The Thiedes also show some stunning examples of personal details that make a home stand out. In addition, log builder Art Thiede lead teh reader through the steps of designing and constructing a small log building. Filled with exceptional color photographs of log homes that reflect the personalities and lifestyles of their owners, Hands-on Log Homes tells of people with extraordinary stories of determination and purpose. Most of them had regular jobs and regular incomes, but for many, a handcrafted log home would not have been financially possible without the generous infusion of their own sweat equity. For others, taking on a house-building project with logs was the opportunity to challenge their own resourcefulness, vent powerful creative energy, and say loud and clear, "Yes, I can!" Cindy Thiede and her husband, Art Thiede, have spent almost twenty years photographing and writing about log-home architecture in the United States. Not only have the couple designed, built, and recycled log homes for themselves and other clients, but they have crisscrossed the country three times over in their efforts to study and document the architectural legacy of logs.
