Book Description

1979
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.

More About the Author

A former USAF pilot, gypsy barnstormer and airplane mechanic, Richard Bach is the author of more than three books.
He has not taken much thought to his page at Amazon, having just discovered today that it exists. He will likely return and fluff up this page a bit. His new website is www.richardbach.com.

5.0 out of 5 stars A real eye opener!, November 9, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah (Mass Market Paperback)
This book changed my life when I read it. It shows how our small choices minute by minute affect our life. We all have a great deal of responsibility for our situations.
Of course there are circumstances we cannot influence, but we can always do our best to steer towards the light. Make decisions based on your goals.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must read and reread, January 29, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah (Mass Market Paperback)
This book is unique in it's simple approch to the life lessons we all experience. Think of it as a way to decode the signposts in life that we tend to ignore or discount. I seems to have the uncanny ability to open to the appropriate passage when ever you look for some first aid for your fuzzy brain. Read enjoy, reread and enjoy, but most of all lend and give away as many copies as you can. You will make connections that last forever.
