Summary: Turbulence on the Ground
Comment: As one who has flown as a passenger on many military and commercial flights, I never thought much about what happened "behind" the Airline counter. This book was a deeply interesting and sometimes amusing view of that phase of the Airline industry and I found myself wanting to read ahead to see what was coming next. The author is a very good storyteller who obviously writes of his own varied experiences. I'm looking forward to his sequel.

Rating: 5
Summary: A GREAT BOOK ABOUT PAN AM
Comment: Through fascinating stories, with humor, memorabilia and photos, "Turbulence on the Ground-PanAm and beyond" brings to life how it was at the former best airline in the world in the fifties. Enticing, powerful and captivating with emotional reflections.

Rating: 5
Summary: The Adventures of Peter King at Pan Am
Comment: Ed's book was a delight to read. His knowledge of the airline industry, combined with his own unique personal experiences, have all the right ingredients to make this book hard to put down once you've started reading it. I particularly appreciated Ed's wonderful sense of humor and was literally howling while reading of his exploits at the cargo building in New York, as well as his overseas temporary assignments.
Ed was able to illustrate just how difficult it was to have worked in a sometimes hostile environment. However, he managed to successfully accomplish his many managerial responsibilities and goals, as he proceeded from one hilarious situation to another.
This book brought back so many fond memories of my own airline experiences as I read page after page with great delight. It also served as a reminder to me that humor, hard work and patience, can all help to overcome the many difficult situations we encounter in our respective careers.
Ed's book is a winner. I certainly hope he writes another one soon.
