Publisher: Ian Allan Ltd, London, 1971 ISBN 10: 0711001804 / ISBN 13: 9780711001800 96 pages. Approx. 9.25" by 6.25" Almost seventy years of United States Air Force history is covered in this single volume, from the moment in 1907 when the Signals Corps of the United States Army established an Aeronautical Division to take "charge of all matters pertaining to military ballooning, air machines, and all kindred subjects". David Mondey tells in concise form a continuing and exciting story of growth, from its three-man Aeronautical Division to the historic moment, on July 21, 1969, when "Buzz" Aldrin of the USAF became the second man to set foot on the Moon. Wonderful illustrated book. 250 black and white illustrations to enhance the narrative, making the volume a "must" for the bookshelf of the aviation enthusiast and general reader alike. Jacket shows some mile wear and tear. Book is spotless and bright. Please see photos, enlarge and feel free to email with any questions. Thanks for looking. |
