[.ca] Gift of Wings: An Aerial Celebration of Canada (ISBN 155046129X)

Unbelievable, a great gift!!!:
This book is incredible. I have bought it as a gift and have not had time to read all the comments and description at the beginning, but have gone through all the pictures and most of their descriptions... It is WONDERFUL. I will get many more copies to give to friends and family, the pictures blow your mind, and the descriptions are concice, short, and most of them are funny too. A great buy.

A "gift of wings" to those of us born without them:
Carl Hiebert has freed not only himself but all those who feel the handicap of wingless birth, to soar and glide through the beautiful spaciousness of Canada. The fascinating story of his injury and recovery of spirit to leave the wheel chair behind as he climbed into the skys of Canada with camera in hand, will forever challenge and delight me, an aviator and current healer of injured bodies and minds. "Breathtaking" is a real understatement for this story of beauty

5000 miles on a kite:
Gift of Wings is perhaps the most powerful and inspiring of the hundreds of books I've read. The fascinating story of a wheelchair traded for wings on 5000 miles journey across Canada. Breathtaking and surprisingly original aerial photographs of a stunningly diversified landscape . Beautiful, philosophical, witty, poetic and joyful. A book with a soul that is sure to touch yours.
