The 91 Before Lindbergh

"Although many books have appeared on various aspects of the early Atlantic flights, until now no one book has described the conquest of the Atlantic North and South by aeroplane, airship, seaplane and flying boat. In telling the story of all the Atlantic flyers prior to Lindbergh's epic flight, this book reveals much fascinating matter unpublished before and underlines the courage and determination of pioneer aviators." —from the dust jacket
