The toughening of men for the job, the "impossible" technical problems involved: these have their part in the book. But most of these pages relate to the extraordinary adventures, mishaps and blood-curdling crises into which these dicers with death have been thrown. They include collision, fire, mechanical and electrical failure, fuel leakage and fuel famine. There are also many exciting photographs.* A JUST GOOD copy of the 1st./1st. with library stamp, missing end paper and grubby, attached, clear dust jacket.* 1962-01-01. n.

Through this remarkable collection of photographs, many of them never published before, the author bears witness to the magic of those gentle, awesome giants of the sky - "cathedral arches twisted into a tracery of aluminium." Superficially it would seem that airships were a folly, a passing fad, a brief interval between centuries of slow, muscle-bound, earthly travel and the age of rockets in space. That would be to overlook the mystique of the airship, enshrined in this book as a sort of divine catalyst, a spark burning bright and extinguished in the instant, having enabled men to cross the threshold and move out to the far reaches of the universe.* A NEAR FINE copy of the 1st./1st. with NO MAJOR FAULTS.* 1978-10-12. n.
