Story65
In 1929, a 22-year-old maverick named Frank Whittle - a self-taught aeronautical obsessive and risk-takingly brilliant RAF pilot - presented a blueprint for a revolutionary, jet-powered aircraft engine to the Air Ministry. His idea had the potential to change the course of history, but it was summarily rejected. In this meticulously researched biography, Duncan Campbell-Smith charts Whittle's stoic efforts to build his jet engine in the interwar years.

RMS Titanic was a British passenger liner, operated by the White Star Line, that sank in the North Atlantic Ocean on April 15, 1912, after striking an iceberg during her maiden voyage from Southampton, England, to New York City. Of the estimated 2,224 passengers and crew aboard, more than 1,500 died, making it the deadliest sinking of a single ship up to that time. It remains the deadliest peacetime sinking of an ocean liner or cruise ship. Frank Prentice, an assistant purser on the Titanic, offers his account of how he survived the sinking of the ship.

Phil Thorne can really bounce back! The story starts with him unceremoniously losing his job (due to his own indiscretion), but immediately helping himself to a great spot by remaining compassionate for an elderly man who needs his help - that man becoming his next employer. Though some nasty men within his new office try to do him up, he overcomes their attempts with his honesty and determination for the truth. Phil teaches us about courage against men as well as calculated bravery in the stock market. (Summary by Keith Salis)

Nip and Tuck are the best of rivals. Throughout the time they've known each other, they seemed to be interested in the same things and in constant competition. Now that they are both burgeoning on adulthood, they each have managed to start a small brokerage firm in the same building in Wall Street. Their youth make them instant targets for ridicule by the older brokers, but their tenacity and business savvy prove to everyone their right to be up there with the best of them.
