Publisher's Note
Honoring the centennial of the Wright brothers' first successful flight, this richly illustrated study chronicles one hundred years in the history of aviation in a stunning array of period photographs that capture such key events as Charles Lindbergh on his epic flight to Paris, a British bomber crew over Hamburg, and Chuck Yeager's record-breaking effort to break the sound barrier.

Review
To coincide with the 100th anniversary of the Wright Brothers' first manned flight, Carlton has produced this beautiful pictorial history of a century of flight, written by one of the world's most distinguished aviation historians. Containing 300 colour photographs, Flight has stories of commercial, sporting and military adventures in the air - how Juan Trippe conquered the world's oceans with Pan American World Airways; how Hermann Goering built his Luftwaffe; how Charles Lindbergh had to slap his own face to stay awake in the first solo transatlantic flight. From the Wright Brothers' maiden voyage, through supersonic flight and beyond, Heppenheimer tells the story of flight with a fine attention to historical detail, whilst also conveying the pioneers' significance, bravery, and sense of adventure.

Product Description
Published to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the Wright brothers' first successful flight, the stunningly illustrated Flight captures the excitement of a century of far-fetched dreams and equally remarkable innovation, from the defeat of Donald Douglas by Boeing's William Allen to Charles Lindberg alone at night in his cockpit on his way to Paris, to British bomber crews over Hamburg, to Chuck Yeager's near disaster and miraculous recovery. What began as a death-defying spectacle turned into both the safest and fastest way to travel and a terrifying war machine. Drawing on the holdings of the National Air and Space Museum, the National Archives and the US Air Force, this is the story of an invention that began with two curious brothers on a chilly and windswept beach and went on to radically change the course of history.
