{"product_id":"9781590135709","title":"Wings","description":"Based on the true World War II stories of America’s first female military pilots, this historic novel follows the story of a young woman from a dirt-poor farm family. Sally Ketchum has little chance of bettering her life until a mysterious barnstormer named Tex teaches her to fly and to dare to love. But when Tex dies in a freak accident, Sally must make her own way in the world. She enrolls in the U.S. military’s Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP) program at a special school known as Avenger, where she learns to fly the biggest, fastest, meanest planes. She also reluctantly becomes involved with Beau Bayard, a flight instructor and aspiring writer who seems to offer her everything she could want. Despite her obvious mastery of flying, many members of the military are unable to accept that a “skirt” has any place in a cockpit. Soon Sally finds herself struggling against a high-powered Washington lawyer that wants to close down Avenger once and for all.","brand":"Karl Friedrich","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46947702702398,"sku":"9781590135709","price":624.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9781590135709_68d07bf3-b17e-4166-b117-a157ba3985ee.jpg?v=1707561079","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9781590135709","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
