Softcover. Condition: Good. Winds of Fate could be called a war story but it is not. Instead it is the story of ordinary people caught up in the furor of World War Two. It is the story of Charlie Cross and his wife Doretta, both civilians but ultimately tied to the military, Charlie as a Service Pilot with Air Transport Command and Doretta as an instructor with the Women Airforce Service Pilots. Winds of Fate takes the reader from the security of the civilian airlines to Natal, Brazil, across the South Atlantic to India and the heroic Hump operation over the Himalayas. It also takes the reader through the world of the WASPs and the lives of the female ferry pilots who flew military airplanes within the United States under the most difficult conditions. It is a novel of endings and beginnings. The end of one life and the beginning of another and the end of one love and the beginning of an epic love affair that will span oceans, years and continents, Yes, it is also a love story, a story of the love for friends, for country and the love between a man and a woman under the duress of war.
