Sinopsis

In "Sully's Challenge: 'Miracle on the Hudson' 'Äì Official Investigation & Full Report of the Federal Agency," the National Transportation Safety Board meticulously presents an exhaustive account of the 2009 emergency landing of US Airways Flight 1549 on the Hudson River. This book is a factual chronicle that intricately details the investigative process, incorporating eyewitness accounts, cockpit recordings, and expert analyses. Its literary style is formal yet accessible, designed to impart critical insights not only for aviation specialists but also for the general public, thereby placing the event in the broader context of aviation safety and human perseverance. The NTSB, an independent federal agency that conducts thorough investigations into transportation incidents, draws upon an extensive history of invaluable lessons learned from prior aviation mishaps. By systematically examining the factors that contributed to the successful water landing orchestrated by Captain Chesley 'ÄúSully'Äù Sullenberger, the report serves as a pivotal case study in both pilot decision-making and crisis management, showcasing the agency's commitment to transparency and safety improvement. "Sully's Challenge" is essential reading for aviation enthusiasts, students of safety protocol, and anyone seeking inspiration from stories of crisis aversion. It not only documents a remarkable event in modern history but also highlights the importance of preparedness and decisive action in life-threatening situations.

  • Henry VII To Elizabeth I - A Comic History Of England Book 5: A Bloody Backstabbing Comedy of Royal Disasters Scheming Monarchs and Countless Heads Rolling - cover

    Henry VII To Elizabeth I - A...

    Prepare for the most uproariously grim tour of Tudor England ever recorded! Gilbert Abbott A'Beckett's classic satire skewers the so-called "golden age" of English monarchy, revealing the Tudors as they truly were: a parade of tyrants, schemers, and royal disasters who treated their subjects like pawns in a deadly game of power. 
    Witness history's worst monarchs at their terrible best: 
    - Henry VII - The paranoid accountant-king who taxed England into submission while pretending to unite the realm. His reign ran on spies, forged claims, and enough gold to make a dragon jealous! 
    - Henry VIII - The original wife-disposer, whose marital musical chairs left two ex-wives headless and a nation bankrupt from his ego. His break with Rome? Just history's most expensive midlife crisis! 
    - Edward VI - The sickly boy-king whose advisors turned England into a Puritan playground where fun went to die (along with most of the treasury). 
    - Bloody Mary - The original firestarter, who turned heresy trials into London's hottest (literally) public spectacles. Her Spanish marriage? The Tudor equivalent of a disastrous Tinder date! 
    - Elizabeth I - The Virgin Queen (or so she claimed) who ruled with an iron ruff, executed her cousin for fun, and bankrupted England fighting wars while pretending to be immortal. 
    From the War of the Roses' messy aftermath to Elizabeth's dying delusions of grandeur, this book proves the Tudors were less a noble dynasty and more a reality show with better costumes and worse consequences.  
    A'Beckett's razor-sharp wit transforms historical atrocities into dark comedy gold, exposing how royal marriages were just preludes to executions, every royal proclamation hid a hidden tax or trap and the only thing growing faster than Henry VIII's waistline was his kill count. 
    Perfect for fans of Horrible Histories., with dark humor, historical atrocities, severed heads, royal tantrums, and exactly zero apologies for mocking the monarchy.

    My Family and Other Enemies is part travelogue, part memoir that dives into the hinterland of Croatia. Mary Novakovich explores her ongoing relationship with the region of Lika in central Croatia, where her parents were born. 'Lika is little known to most travellers - apart from Plitvice Lakes National Park and the birthplace of Nikola Tesla' she says. 'It's a region of wild beauty that has been battered by centuries of conflict. Used as a buffer zone between the Habsburg and Ottoman empires for hundreds of years, Lika became a land of war and warriors. And when Yugoslavia started to disintegrate in 1991, it was here where some of the first shots were fired.' Shipped off to Lika as a child during the supposedly golden years of Tito to stay with relatives she barely knew, Novakovich has been revisiting Croatia ever since, researching the story of her family's often harrowing life: in 1941 her aunt was the only survivor of Serbs massacred by Croatian fascists; and her mother saved her grandmother from being buried alive when she was thought to be dead from typhus. Amidst adversity there is resilience and laughter, too, with plenty of light to balance the shade. Eccentric and entertaining characters abound, showing typically sardonic Balkan humour. And, this being the Balkans, much of daily life revolves around food, which features prominently. Throughout, aspects of Croatian history that relate to Lika are woven into the narrative to give the story some much-needed context. And in recounting her own family's tumultuous history, Novakovich opens up a world that is little known outside the Balkans, telling the stories of people whose experiences weren't widely reported at the time, when the devastation in Croatia was superseded by the Bosnian conflict and media attention moved elsewhere.
