About BC Books Online
BC Books Online was created for anyone interested in BC-published books, and with librarians especially in mind. We'd like to make it easy for library staff to learn about books from BC publishers - both new releases and backlist titles - so you can inform your patrons and keep your collections up to date.
Our site features print books and ebooks - both new releases and backlist titles - all of which are available to order through regular trade channels. Browse our subject categories to find books of interest or create and export lists by category to cross-reference with your library's current collection.
A quick tip: When reviewing the "Browse by Category" listings, please note that these are based on standardized BISAC Subject Codes supplied by the books' publishers. You will find additional selections, grouped by theme or region, in our "BC Reading Lists."

Description
The Otter/Twin Otter series are amoung the most versatile aircraft ever built. They have been used as fire-fighting water-bombers and as interurban air buses. Able to out-perform the helicopters of the time, U.S. military Otters have explored Alaska and Antarctica. Otters have made both war and peace, as front-line supply haulers in Vietnam and as the backbone of United Nations peacekeeping efforts in the Middle East.
Editorial Review
"Otter and Twin Otter is a must for plane buffs, especially if they've lived in the north where these planes are still extensively used."
