Taking Flight

In October 1944 Nadine Ramsey was thirty-three and she was flying the cutting-edge P-51 Mustang to New Jersey, its last stop before heading to the war in Europe. The irrepressible young woman from Wichita had long been determined to fly and the gathering storm clouds of World War II had provided an unexpected opportunity. Taking Flight is the inspiring story of a girl from Depression-era Kansas who overcame tremendous challenges and defied convention to become an elite pilot—one of the few American women to fly fighter aircraft during World War II. Taking Flight follows Nadine as she became one of 1,102 women to join the Women’s Airforce Service Pilots and one of only 303 WASPs to take t...

Fighting from Above

The story of the United States Air Force (USAF) stretches back to aerial operations prior to the First World War—well before the USAF became a separate service—and looks forward to a new era of airpower in space. Fighting from Above presents a concise account of this expansive history, offering a new perspective on how the air forces of the United States created an independent way of warfare over time. From the earliest battles of the USAF’s predecessor organizations to its modern incarnation, Brian D. Laslie identifies four distinct and observable ways of war that developed over four distinct epochs. Beginning with the development of early air power (1906–1941), he highlights the cr...

Hiding in Plain Sight

Hiding in Plain Sight: Women Warriors throughout Time and Space takes the many, long-standing dimensions of military history, including the various modalities of warfare across cultures and periods, and integrates them with the more recent and very substantial contributions of social history, women’s history, black history, feminist theory, LGBTQ community, and other perspectives. By providing an extensive annotated bibliography of the new findings, the work provides the reader with an exciting compilation of new knowledge placed within a longstanding military historical framework, one which provides a broader study and understanding of warfare into which to put the very recent, disparate ...

Cordula was not stupid. People who were both my friends and hers were considered stupid. And in Cordula's place I would have doubted whether people she considered stupid were real friends. No, Cordula was not stupid, Cordula was at most naive. Maybe too naive. And it seemed to my friends a mischievous desire to tell her the strangest truths, because Cordula tended to believe these dubious truths without the slightest appearance of suspicion. I knew Martina's friend only by hearsay, and I was amazed at the impartiality with which she took the most impossible stories at face value. I think it was not right that Martina and Konrad constantly told her some nonsense, amused themselves about it an...

I was pretty depressed because after a relationship of over five years, my girlfriend had broken up with me. Well, it didn't work out that way lately, but I never thought that our relationship would end like this. When we met at school I thought Sarah would be the woman for my life, but after her apprenticeship she was more interested in her career than in our relationship. My friends tried to comfort me, but that only helped to a certain extent. What I found particularly difficult were the evenings alone. So I looked for a solution to my problem and placed an ad on a website, giving my city and e-mail address, and the text read: "Abandoned man seeks abandoned woman for evenings together. Si...

I put a few things in my shopping cart and then I passed the candy section. I looked to see if they had another one of my favorites. Sure enough, there it was: White Chocolate with Stracciatella. It tasted so delicious that I didn't care that it cost more than a normal bar. It was early in the morning and I was one of the first customers in the supermarket. Then I had everything together and went to the cash register. And there sat the cute saleswoman again. She was slim, had long blonde hair in a ponytail, a pretty face and an adorable smile. As she scanned through my purchases, she glanced at the chocolate with interest. "That looks delicious," she said. I replied" I'd love to offer you a ...
