From Lysander to Lightning

Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
The Lysander, Canberra, Lightning and Folland Gnat are massive names in the world of aviation, but not so their designer, ‘Teddy’ Petter. Only three aspects bound together these top-class aircraft: they were each radical, all successful in Britain and overseas, and were all born of the genius of Teddy Petter. This book tells the story of Petter’s life and family, from his ability to inspire loyalty in his teams to his tendencies to his eccentricities, right down to his retirement to a religious commune in France. Here Davies not only explores his life, but also expands on the nature of his remarkable aircraft, and why they were so legendary.

In the midst of this endless variety of opinion, what man, or what body of men, has the right to say, in regard to any particular action, or course of action, "we have tried this experiment, and determined every question involved in it? We have determined it, not only for ourselves, but for all others? And, as to all those who are weaker than we, we will coerce them to act in obedience to our conclusions? We will suffer no further experiment or inquiry by any one, and, consequently, no further acquisition of knowledge by anybody?"

Pages : 153
Book Description
An Wei and Apophany, inseparable as children, were forced into adulthood along vastly separate routes. Apophany, an empress through forced marriage, and An Wei, an orphan through politically motivated killings. An Wei escapes through the valiant efforts of his father while Apophany must bear the foreboding pressure of leading her new empire as a figure head. An Wei, finding solace only within the beautiful memory of the smile of his best friend Apophany, obtains direction for where he wants his life to conclude, beside his best friend. Fortunately for An Wei, the emperor passed away as a result of his desire for the adrenaline-filled life of warrior legends. Not wanting to lose his chance, An Wei ceases the moment to thrust himself back into Apophany's life. Surrounded by political edicts, traditional avenues, and cultural bias, An Wei understands that the only way to get to his Apophany is through the shadows created by his family. An Wei soothes the mind and spirit of Apophany while honoring her request for him not to reveal his identity. With war breaking out and Apophany showing signs that she still lacks the strength to help make a change in her empire, An Wei sets out to give her as much time as she needs. An Wei enlists to defend the empire. Apophany, soon understanding what her truest desire is, searches for An Wei. Apophany and An Wei, through unforeseen events, now must decide on the course of their native empire as An Wei now stands before Apophany, an empress, as an emperor. With the fate of the land in their hands, they are forced into mortal combat. Apophany must decide between what is truly important in her life and, subsequently, the lives of her people, traditions created generations ago, or through the steady advancement of empowerment for all. And Apophany must decide quickly as she finds herself, yet again, torn between mortal combat, fear, and her truest desire. "It is a sensual adventure of how passionate love for oneself and one's people is gained and lost before being rekindled through the trials of cultural conflict and domestic war."
