Glider books or movies?

Are there any good stories (books & movies, fiction or nonfiction) which include a lot of glider flying? A book about cross country gliding would be perfect... a documentary, etc. Thanks -tom I have a fondness for 'New Soaring Pilot' by Frank Irving and Ann Welch Classics include "Sunship Game", "Dawn Flight", and "The Boy Who Flew with Condors" (only recently available on DVD). A short DVD called "Out & Return" is a good example of the day in the life of the glider pilot and recruiting tool. There are some good YouTube productions and examples also.
