Cindy Weigand beautifully weaves facts and fiction in Big Jack, Cowboy Aviator. Using newspaper accounts, letters, and other primary sources, Weigand returns readers to the Golden Age of Aviation and allows them to take flight with “Big Jack” Ashcraft. With the turn of each page, Weigand explores the triumphs and tragedies of Ashcraft’s life and documents the extreme hazards associated with early aviation. While the book offers readers a thrilling adventure, the included “Author’s Notes” ensures that it is educational too.

Anytime men come together in high-risk endeavors, a shared but often unspoken understanding forms. Ms. Weigand pries loose these private words, thoughts, and emotions for others to see, and feel.

Great pictures! The book brings back so many memories of events and all the old timers you mentioned. A terrific read for me. The cover design is perfect.

I read your novel and was most impressed.…
HENRY LOWE, Lowe Aviation Company, Macon, Georgia
Having spent my life in aviation and having friends in the Airshow business. I know firsthand the current risks that Airshow performers deal with and the personalities that are best suited to that life. The early Aviators assumed that risk and much more without the engines, instruments and weather reporting we have today. Cindy brought those risks and personalities to life following the exploits of her Great Uncle Jack. Well Done!
H Lowe
In her new novel–Big Jack, Cowboy Aviator (a novel)–author Cindy Weigand skillfully blends reality with imagination in a seamless mixture of fact and fiction. Weigand not only draws the reader in emotionally through a crisp fictional style, she also grounds the reader with the inclusion of poignant primary sources—photographs, newspaper articles, letters. This blending of fiction and fact bring the story of Jack Ashcroft alive. I highly recommend this novel.
