Hello and good morning friends,
I am having sleepless nights because I am excited. My book: More Than a Ticket Memoirs Flying with American Airlines from Props to Jets is out there making new friends. As you buy the book and read it, know that I look forward to hearing from you at argie.ella@gmail.com Thanks to new and old friends for your comments and telling me what you like about the book. It helps me understand what the reader is enjoying, and as I continue to write my new book: Please Don't Call Me! Dumb, I consider what not only the brain, but the heart, is saying to my words. The following are a few of the comments which have come my way.

I bought your book in the SLC airport bookstore; my husband and I are private pilots from Connecticut, if you remember.
I read about 75% of your book on the flight to BWI and finished it 2 days after we got home. I REALLY enjoyed reading about the period of commercial flying during which you were a stewardess when flying was something special unlike the “cattle car” experience of today. The first time I flew on a plane was in December of 1977 when I flew to SLC with my then husband-to-be (whom you met) so we could get married at his brother’s house in Reno. It was SO exciting and the stewardesses were so nice. The only thing I did NOT like was the smoking on-board, so there is one improvement today!
Thanks again for writing such a fun and interesting book!
Yours in flight,

A wonderful book about an American Airlines stewardess who served
on the nation's first domestic jet flight, rose lemonade, and a
beautiful Tuscany candle in "Fresh Linen"!
Please, everyone, get this book. It's wonderfully written by my friend, Argie! She signed it as well.
Argie,
your book arrived yesterday and I haven't put it down since! What an
amazing story beautifully written! I love all the notes and
correspondence. I actually felt your heartache when you put your head
on your supervisor's desk in the office requesting to leave!! WoW!
Thank you so much for signing it. I will treasure that always. Take
good care my friend and thank you for sharing your story.

Hi Argie,
I love to use materials like your book in the classes that I teach on the history of travel and the history of air travel. They are an invaluable source to provide personal information to give students a sense of what it was like to work for the airlines and to travel by air.
Happy Holidays,
Anke
It'll be of great use in the classroom,
All the best, Anke
