About this title

Synopsis

Award-winning columnist Randy Fitzgerald and his wife, Barbara, get the humor soaring in FLIGHTS OF FANCY: Stories, Conversations and Life Travels with a Bemused Columnist and His Whimsical Wife, a collection of columns and anecdotes. Randy -- columnist for The Richmond News Leader, the Richmond Times-Dispatch and Boomer magazine -- and Barbara -- freelance writer and advertising/marketing expert long have been favorites both in print and on the local lecture tour.

In this hysterical collection from Beach Glass Books, Randy writes of the ordinary and the outrageous events in the life of one man's family, including an encounter with eight members of the British Royal family (yes, including the queen) on a London street and another with Willie Nelson in a Nashville parking lot.

But did Randy also take his bride on a honeymoon to the Putt-Putt capital of the world? Did he flood his family's home to the tune of $13,000 in damages? And did Barb back the car over his Martin guitar? Did she get the couple's love story featured in Good Housekeeping magazine?

Yes to all that and much, much more. Barb, his wife of 31, 46 or 56 years (it all depends on how you count) confirms and explains it all with her amused and amusing commentaries. Dozens of photographs and Douglas Payne illustrations enhance the stories.

Flights of Fancy is perfect for your handbag or beach bag, anyone's holiday stocking, your favorite end table or even the bathroom. Count on it being picked up - and the laughs to ensue.

Columns by Randy Fitzgerald, honored as

Virginia's Best Magazine Columnist.

With new commentary by Randy and Barbara Fitzgerald, and

dozens of photographs and Douglas Payne illustrations.

Store Description

Book People RVA has been serving readers around the world since 1980. Known as the Richmond metro-area book provider for those who prefer a warm, customer-focused buying experience, Book People offers new and used fiction and non-fiction titles and many literary genres. No matter the interaction--through its new store conveniently located in Henrico's far West End or online, customers experience the friendly and rapid service that has convinced so many buyers over the years to use Book People for all their book purchases. We fulfill orders requested via email, online, or telephone, and we accept special orders such as out-of-print books, international mail orders, and titles from boutique publishers. Book People has long had a strong community presence and sponsors several book clubs and numerous book and author events. The store supports educators and provides them a 20% discount. As part of its advocacy for free speech, Book People takes a stand against book banning and keeps an up-to-date display of books currently under threat in schools and libraries across the country. Our history: Book People founder Ruth Erb first opened the store at an earlier incarnation of the Willow Lawn shopping center. Because she loved books, loved working with people, and wanted to combine the two, she called her new store Book People. In 1986, Erb moved the store to Granite Avenue in the Westhampton part of Richmond, where it did a brisk business. Former store employee David Shuman purchased Book People from Erb in 2018, and he has recently relocated the store to larger quarters in the Gleneagles shopping center in western Henrico.
