This work presents a journey through a century of flight, capturing the spirit & excitement of aviation past & present, from the Wright brothers' first airborne attempts to the story behind the space race. Bone-jarring moments of flight with pioneers such as Orville Wright, Harriet Quimby & Roland Garros are presented, along with absorbing profiles of the key personalities & the planes they flew. Readers can follow the swift advances in aviation technology that took place with the onset of war, as supremacy in the skies became a crucial factor.
