Download or read book Wings Over Istanbul written by Johnnie Polando and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1931, just four years after Lindbergh flew the Atlantic, Johnny Polando and Russell Boardman left from Floyd Bennett airfield and flew their single engine Bellanca nonstop to Istanbul, Turkey. After 5011 miles in the air, the duo landed with only 15 minutes' fuel remaining in their tanks, but they set the record for long-distance nonstop flight. In recognition of their contribution to aviation, Boardman-Polando field in Hyannis, Massachusetts, was named in their honor on the 50th anniversary of their flight. Two years after this amazing journey, Boardman was killed in a crash, but Polando flew for the rest of his life, mainly in New England. The book recounts his 1934 participation in the 11,123-mile MacRobertson race from England to Australia, in which he and his copilot got only as far as Calcutta after landing in the Persian desert where Polando was briefly held captive by Arabs. And it tells of his experiences as a World War II pilot. Polando's wife, Dorothy, assembled the material for this book and reviewed it with him before his death in 1985.

He then startles them by proposing to finance a trip for the three of them through time back to the fifth century BC. Their initial reaction is outright refusal. Ken West is a scholar and a university professor of Latin and Ancient Greek. He is also an insecure lovelorn man who desperately wants a woman’s love but hasn’t found one to share his life. Nick Napoli is a handsome electronic genius who flits from woman to woman leaving a trail of broken hearts behind him. In reality he is a lonely man who craves adventure. David Braun is a highly successful businessman with the Midas touch. Married twice, he loses both wives to tragic deaths. The loss of two women leaves him a shattered man, fearful of making another marital commitment. After much soul searching and discussions among themselves the three men agree to start preparations for the trip.

Download or read book Documents of the Rise of Christianity written by Kevin W. Kaatz and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2019-03-14 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An introduction to the history of early Christianity, this reference provides roughly 60 primary source documents from the first five centuries of the Christian Era, each accompanied by explanatory material. Christianity has been one of the most powerful influences on world history, and for this reason the world of the early Christians figures prominently in film, fiction, and popular culture. The first centuries of Christianity provided the foundation for the faith institutions of today; this book examines the history of early Christianity through its use of primary texts written by early Christians. In doing so, it helps readers to understand that multiple sects of Christianity competed for dominance, and it sheds light on the struggles of early Christians that their differences entailed. The book covers the first five centuries of the Christian Era, with sections devoted to each century. Some 60 primary source documents appear within those sections, and each is accompanied by background information. This chronological arrangement helps readers to understand how Christianity evolved over time, and it provides insights into the theological debates and persecutions that marked the lives of early Christians and characterized the early Church.
