Strap in for a captivating saga set in one of the momentous periods in American history. Young Ben Ryan and his antique Waco biplane are thrust eighty years back in time, crash-landing in America’s bygone era of pioneering aviation. Stranded in a country ravaged by the great Depression, he must learn — the hard way — the customs and hazards of an America long since relegated to the history books. In 1929, the townfolk possess a simple, disarming grace and beauty, and soon capture Ben's heart. It no longer matters that he comes from 2010. This is his hometown, these are his people, and he knows his past holds the key to their future. An epic journey ensues, a quest to find a way to bring a brighter future to his people, his country, and a world engulfed in poverty and turmoil. True historical events are melded seamlessly with the what-ifs of time-travel and fiction, and mixed deliciously with an enduring, poignant love story. Angels and their Hourglasses is a voyage of pure adventure, every bit as riveting and heart-grabbing as the history it travels through.… (more)
