Strap in for a captivating saga set in a momentous period of American history. Young Ben Ryan and his antique Waco biplane, thrust eighty-five years back in time, crash-land in America?s bygone era; the pioneer days of aviation. Stranded in a country ravaged by the great Depression, he must learn?the hard way?the customs and hazards of an America long since relegated to the history books. In 1929, the good people of Springfield, Massachusetts possess a simple, disarming grace and beauty that captures Ben?s heart. This way of life, and these folks?once nothing more than a hobby to him?are now real, and his once-simple pastime holds the key to their future. An epic journey ensues, a quest to bring a brighter future to his past and present hometown, his country, and a world engulfed in poverty and turmoil. It?s a voyage of pure adventure, all at once riveting, heart-grabbing, and poignant.
