Illusions
: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah
Richard Bach
A truly fascinating book, probably my favourite Bach. Db.
Book Description In the cloud-washed airspace between the cornfields
of Illinois and blue infinity, a man puts his faith in the propeller of
his biplane. For disillusioned writer and itinerant barnstormer Richard
Bach, belief is as real as a full tank of gas and sparks firing in the
cylinders...until he meets Donald Shimoda--former mechanic and self-described
messiah who can make wrenches fly and Richard's imagination soar....
In Illusions, the unforgettable follow-up to his phenomenal bestseller
Jonathan Livingston Seagull, Richard Bach takes to the air to discover
the ageless truths that give our souls wings: that people don't need airplanes
to soar...that even the darkest clouds have meaning once we lift ourselves
above them... and that messiahs can be found in the unlikeliest places--like
hay fields, one-traffic-light midwestern towns, and most of all, deep within
ourselves.

Out
of My Mind : The Discovery of Saunders-Vixen
by Richard Bach, K. O. Eckland (Illustrator)
Richard Bach, the writer who flew to success on the wings of Jonathan
Livingston Seagull, once again returns to flight for metaphysical inspiration.
Bach begins this journey with a quandary--how to customize his airplane,
a small Piper Cub? For example, how can he keep his latch door from slamming
shut in midflight? How to stop his oil cap from jiggling loose and disappearing?
With each question the solutions appear; they are apparently delivered
by a vision of a benevolent woman. Before long, Bach realizes that an aircraft
designer from an earlier time and another dimension is tutoring him. Of
course, Bach takes the ultimate flight into her parallel universe where
he finds an old-fashioned aviation company that solves problems for troubled
aviators. He also meets his mysterious muse Laura Bristol. This is a brief
story (101 pages) that wrestles with the limitations of present-day technology
and the grandeur of the early days of aviation. True to Bach's mission,
it also wrestles with the choices we make in this time and this moment,
and how they can change our life and our universe. --Gail Hudson - Amazon.com

Rescue
Ferrets at Sea
by Richard Bach
If you think Jonathan Livingston Seagull is unclassifiable, wait until
you see Richard Bach's latest, Rescue Ferrets at Sea. It's a fable that's
simple as a children's book, but packing a message about spiritual self-empowerment.
Rescue ferrets are, of course, the animal kingdom's answer to the Coast
Guard, daredevils responsible for the safety of all nonhumans at sea. Our
heroine, Captain Bethany Ferret, brings a reporter aboard the J-boat Resolute
as she races to save calico cats, ships' rats, and the odd Indonesian parrot
from imminent shipwreck near the Strait of Juan de Fuca (near the island
where author Bach lives). The reporter, Miss Chloe, also happens to be
a rock star--surely you've heard of Zsa Zsa and the Show Ferrets? But Chloe
("Call me Clo, please") is no spoiled, shallow celeb. She's got her paws
on the ground (except when she's on a boat), and she's philosophical about
showbiz. "If celebrity's magic, it's a screen, and I'm forever outside,"
says Clo. "I wish sometimes somebody would see me and not some... some
mirror flash they want to be me." After 32 years as a bestselling author
and human-potential pundit, Bach knows a bit about celebrity and its illusions.
Mostly, this is a straight-ahead action fable about ferret heroism and
self-rescue. It has more characters than it can develop (and runelike passages
in secret ferret language), because Bach has in mind about 60 more books
in the Ferret Chronicles. Second in the series: Air Ferrets Aloft. --Tim
