Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. This copy is in new, unmarked condition bound in red cloth covered boards with bright gilt titling to the spine. This copy is bright, tight, white and square. There is an attractive bookplate to the front paste down. The unclipped dust wrapper is in fine condition. International postal rates are calculated on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs more than 1 Kilo increased postal rates will be quoted, where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. A practical reference to the history and varieties of lighter-than-air crafts produced since 1783. This is a wonderful little gem, outstanding even among Blandford's series of "pocket encyclopedia" volumes. The best feature are the colour illustrations which, like the text, have been prepared with painstaking attention to historical accuracy. Accompanying them are Blandford's usual fact-packed descriptions of each illustrated entry and its history, together with an informative seven-page historical overview. In here you will find medieval fancies, the eighteenth-century race between hot air and hydrogen, barrage balloons, aircraft carriers of the sky, the great Zeppelins, journeys to the edge of space and much, much more, all told through the aircraft themselves. A glossary, bibliography and index complete this beautiful little book. Ref WWW 4.
