We've All Life Before Us
“A compelling read.” – Aeroplane Monthly Twenty-five-year-old Bob Keddie died on 16 May 1942 when his Catalina flying boat disappeared over the Norwegian Sea. He had been on a reconnaissance patrol for the protection of convoys carrying vital supplies to the Russians. No trace of him, his nine crew members, or his aircraft was ever found.

Diana Ladner, a beautiful aspiring actress of nineteen, had met the dashing Bob Keddie at a per...

Music in the Women's Institute has become stereotyped by the ritualistic singing of Jerusalem at monthly meetings. Indeed, Jerusalem has had an important role within the organization, and provides a valuable means within which to assess the organization's relationship with women's suffrage and the importance of rurality in the Women's Institute's identity. However, this book looks beyond Jerusalem by examining the full range of music making within the organization and locates its significance within a wider historical-cultural context. The Institute's promotion of conducting - a regular part of its musical activity since the 1930s - is discussed within the context of embodying overtly femini...

Diana had a wonderful life with a husband and children until everything changed. Life is like that; it flows along, and then, you hit the rapids. There would be many times that Diana would have to reinvent herself enduring many life changes. The truth is, she was very blessed and had the opportunity to live many years with a man who would be the love of her life. Noah was literally tall, dark, and handsome. His wealth was an added bonus.

For the little girl who collected butterflies, life would come full circle, and she would be lucky enough to experience twice the miracle with both feet on the ground.
