I had promised when I bought my first typewriter that I would never write about anything that didn't matter to me, that didn't make some difference in my life, and I've come pleasantly close to keeping that promise."<p>A GIFT OF WINGS shares the highlights of fifteen years in the life of Richard Bach, who began to write after he learned to fly. Since he writes about what concerns him most, everything in this book is set in his special world of flight. But it is no more for flying buffs alone than Cousteau is intended for deep sea divers.<p>"Flying is my religion," Richard Bach has said. "It is my way of finding what is true."<p>The truth is that all of Richard Bach's thoughts and actions in his reminiscences here, in some overall logical way, lead to the themes in JONATHAN LIVINGSTON SEAGULL. Everything in A GIFT OF WINGS contributes to an understanding of the joy and meaning of flight, or illustrates that special ingredient of adventure, freedom, discovery, perfection, inspiration with which Richard Bach flavors his life and his writing. From this book, the reader will most certainly know why flying is so important to the author, will be able to share his experiences in the air and the special people who are his friends in the world of flying, and to understand his never-ending devotion to learning to fly - and to live - better."- From dust jacket.<p>"Once in a generation a book, a vision, a writer, capture the imagination and emotions of millions. Jonathan Livingston Seagull was such a book. Richard Bach's unique vision again shines forth, touching with magic the drama of life in all its limitless horizons. Once again Richard Bach has written a masterpiece to help you touch that part of your home that is the sky."- From publisher.<p>"He captures the sheer exhilaration, at moments approaching exaltation, that he experiences up there."- San Francisco Chronicle. C.2.
