Traversing the four corners of the globe as a military man and cruise ship doctor, Edward McNeil noticed two important things: First, there were many fascinating characteristics in the differences in people around the world; Secondly, there were not many good things to read going from place to place. With Plane Reading, Volume I (Revised), Edward McNeil hopes to cure the boredom of aviation travel with 15 short stories of varying length and genre representing the author's humor and wit while capitalizing on his observations of those he has met while traveling. Romance, science fiction, mystery and suspense can all be found within the pages of McNeil's tall tales of people and places, providing readers with a mental escape from the cramped quarters of commercial flight cabins. The author borrowed from the personalities and character traits of those he met throughout his years of roaming the planet to compile his stories of lengths between four and forty-plus pages.Abundant in interesting characters and concise in its sensory-provoking descriptions of far-off lands, Plane Reading, Volume I (Revised) makes travel as light and easy as the air readers soar through from stop to stop in their travels.
