World War One: Aviation
1918 Classroom Notebook of a Cadet at the United States Army School of Aeronautics at Ohio State University
Columbus OH: np 1918. First Edition. Hardcover. Good. 4to. Cloth hardcover three ring binder. Holding 151 leaves; 110 holograph 41 typed. Many sheets loose from ring binding. Cloth torn at spine. Overall contents well preserved. <br/><br/>The classroom lecture notebook of an unnamed cadet at The United States Army School of Aeronautics at Ohio State University Columbus OH covering January through March 1918. During WWI a pilot shortage in the United States became apparent. In response the War Department and U.S. Army formed the Aviation Cadet Training Program installing aviation training schools at six universities across the country. This program at Ohio State appears to have consisted of 8 weeks of classes with training in military drill discipline and technical instruction with an emphasis on aviation. Curriculum from the program formed the basis for the aeronautical engineering courses later taught at OSU. A scarce set of materials from an early instructional program of military aviation training and education one that would eventually become the US Air Force. np hardcover books

World War Two Aviation Sergievsky Boris
Typed letter signed "Boris Sergievsky" to "Whom it May Concern"
New York 1942. 1p. on Sergievsky's personal letterhead. 8vo. Old folds lower right hand corner chipped not affecting text or signature otherwise a fine letter with a bold clear signature. 1p. on Sergievsky's personal letterhead. 8vo. A letter written by the renowned Russian ace and world record setting Sikorsky test pilot on behalf of Danish-born ballet and Broadway dancer Paul Haakon considered by many to be one of greatest ballet dancers of the 20th century. <br/><br/>Reading in part: "I have known Paul Haakon Longreen for over sixteen years. In the theatrical profession he is known under the name of Paul Haakon. It is very well known that he is one of the best dancers in the world. He gave up his dancing recently to become a flying instructor purely to serve his country. I sincerely believe that anything which could be done to facilitate his joining the United States Army Air Force reserve would benefit our war effort."<br/><br/>Despite Sergievsky's recommendation in our letter it seems Haakon never became a combat pilot during WWII and instead toured as an entertainer with the United Service Organizations. He died in New York in 1992. unknown books

THE MILLIONAIRES' UNIT: THE ARISTOCRATIC FLYBOYS WHO FOUGHT THE GREAT WAR AND INVENTED AMERICAN AIRPOWER.
New York: PublicAffairs 2006. 313 pp large 8vo 9 1/2" H. B&w photographs map. "The story of a gilded generation of young men from the zenith of privilege: a Rockefeller a Taft the son on the head of the Union Pacific Railroad a son of J.P. Morgan's leading partner and several who counted friends and relatives among presidents and statesmen of the day. Most were students at Yale in 1916 striving for rewards on the athletic fields in school organizations and in Skull & Bones. They had it all and remarkably by modern standards they were prepared to risk it all to fight a distant war in France. Driven by the belief that their membership in the American elite required certain sacrifices schooled in heroism and the nature of leadership they were determined to be first into the conflict leading the way ahead of America's declaration that it would join the Great War in Europe. At the heart of the group was the Yale flying club six of whose members are the heroes of this book. They would share rivalries over girlfriends jealousies over membership in Skull & Bones and fierce ambition to be the most daring young man over the battlefields of France where the casualties among flyers were chillingly high." Minor wrinkling at bottom of spine. Dust jacket has minor edge wear/wrinkling. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. PublicAffairs Hardcover
