John P Crangle was born in Ireland in 1941 and educated in Dublin where he met his wife Maeve and it is in this city that they have spent most of their lives together. After a spell in the legal department of a large banking organisation he commenced studying aviation, qualified as a pilot and quickly rose to the rank of Chief Flight Instructor. In 1986 he was requested to set up a flight training organisation at Dublin Airport and for 15 years he trained over 43 pilots to commercial pilot level, 27 of whom became First Officers with airlines worldwide. Some of his students are now Captains in their own right. Numerous trophies were awarded to him over the years and in 1996 through his wife's studies into the problems surrounding the Fear of Flying, he became very interested in this area and now devotes much of his time to this work. He officially retired in 2005 which actually means nothing as he is frequently asked to attend conferences worldwide connected with the Fear of Flying and on a regular basis he is requested to give seminars on the Theory of Flight. He has written four chapters in his wife's recent book, Conquering your Fear of Flying by Dr Maeve Byrne Crangle, which has been translated into six languages and is sold worldwide. This small input into writing inspired him to pen his first fictional novel which he freely admits has given him great pleasure and much enjoyment. He travels extensively with Maeve and if one were to ask him to sum up his life in broad-spectrum, he would simply say that it has been one big party.

"Not Just a Rabbit" follows the life of Winston the Rabbit, in his own words. We learn that rabbits are very intelligent, they understand everything humans say and they love to play. We also learn that rabbits are bothered by the phrase "just a rabbit" they are much cleverer than that! Winston's life was not always wonderful and he shares his unhappy experiences as well as the fun times. He also shares stories of the lives of other rabbits that have crossed his path and who eventually found their way to friendly places. It is hoped this book will help make people think about how animals are treated and also to draw attention to the magnificent work that the rescue organizations do.
