History of early aviation from the pioneering works of Lilienthal up to 1914. I covers the history of the first flights both in America and Europe. Nicely illustrated with several good photos. Apart from the history of flying the book dedicates several chapters to the practical aspects of flying such as aerodromes, aerial warfare and flying schools.
