Use as a bookmark Well illustrated with map and photographs. Glossary. Chronology. List of chapter notes. Bibliography. Index. From the rear cover: "From time to time in the body of scholarly writing there emerges a work of commanding importance. Sometimes this paper will do more than satisfy a committee; sometimes it will go beyond a noble contribution to the sum of our knowledge and will also entertain the reader. Occasionally it will be couched in plain easy-to-understand journalism designed to captivate a person with a sense of being there. CITY OF FLIGHT is all of this. James J. Horgan transports his reader into history; into the basket of the Atlantic as the 19th century balloon crashes into the timber of upstate New York a thousand miles after its takeoff from St. Louis. Into the Red Devil as Thomas Scott Baldwin flies his flimsy biplane between the Mississippi River and the arches of Eads Bridge. Onto the struts of the Sky Cycle as a 15 year-old boy pedals his little gas-filled dirigible over Forest Park. Onto Art Hill to cheer the flyover of America's newest hero Charles A. Lindbergh in his Spirit of St. Louis in salute to the city which made it all possible. This is an epic set in the very cradle of aviation history -- the City of St. Louis -- now as it was in the beginning the City of Flight.". Second Edition. Softcover. Very Good condition.
