Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. Flight Lieutenant Thomas Tommy' Rose, a First World War fighter ace, was a pioneer of private flying. He installed and managed the UK's first fuel pump for private aviation at Brooklands before becoming Sales Manager for Phillips and Powis Aircraft Ltd. The chief flying instructor at several early flying schools, Tommy became the Chief Test Pilot for Miles Aircraft and was the winner of air races and pageants. He was undoubtedly a pilot who could always be relied on to amaze the onlookers with his fast, accurate stunts and low-level flying. Mentioned in Despatches in 1916 and awarded the DFC in 1918, Tommy was attacked in his aircraft several times, yet his astonishing ability at the controls of his aircraft enabled him to land without serious injury. By the time of the Armistice, Tommy had been credited with eleven kills'. He continued to demonstrate these skills after the war and though this true trailblazer was widely known in his glory days during the early part of the twentieth century, little is remembered about him today. Yet Tommy Rose achieved the most incredible feats of aviation and was considered one of the finest pilots of his era, completing over 11,200 flying hours up to 1949. In the 1930s, Tommy took the Imperial Airways route through East Africa, to set up a new world record on the UK to Cape Town passage, beating Amy Mollison (Johnson) who took the shorter course down the west coast. He also won the King's Cup Air Race in 1935. Tommy flew many of the early RAF fighters from Maurice Farman to the Spitfire Mk.IX, and, from late 1939, when he was appointed Chief Test Pilot for Phillip & Powis Aircraft Ltd at Woodley (forerunners of Miles Aircraft Ltd), he test flew all Miles monoplane training and target towing aircraft, leaving in January 1946. His last position was as General Manager of Universal Flying Services Ltd at Fairoaks Aerodrome in Surrey. The result of decades of research by the author, through this book the life and adventures of one of history's most accomplished and daring aviators can finally be told.

stapled wrappers. Condition: Very Good. Thomas Hart Benton (illustrator). First Edition. Quarto, 48 pages, pictorial wrappers, The largest mural project to that date was undertaken for the State of Indiana's pavilion at the Century of Progress World's Fair at Chicago in 1933. Thomas Hibben, a contributor here was, "the first architect of my acquaintance who realized that painting had a function beyond that of draping walls. . This mural painting of Indiana sees the realization of a project that I have had in mind for fifteen years . a history of the United States which would unroll progressively the social and environmental changes of the country from the savage Indiana to the present days of our machine culture. I visualized this history as realistic and factual. Realistic as to form, factual as to content. . Colonel Lieber's quick understanding of my desire to represent a social progression made it possible for me to transfer my original historical plan from the United States as a whole to the State of Indiana, the context of whose history is symbolical of the entire country." - T. H. Benton. After the World's Fair, 22 of the panels of this 250 ft.-long mural are preserved at Indiana University in Bloomington, IN. This was his "breakthrough" work.
