A new author-publisher, my first book "Aviation Chicago Timeline" was released in Nov. 2018. It's a riveting chronology that shows Chicago's crucial role in the development of aviation starting in the late 1800s and continuing through the present. I started Chicago Aviation Press to publish additional titles of nonfiction works about aviation, Chicago, history and any combination of the three.
