London; (1962): Putnam. First Edition. Octavo. 675 pages, index, maps. A remarkable through history of the first transport flights across the English Channel to those over Europe, Africa and the Pacific rim. Winston Churchill, who was the first Secretary of State for Air just after World War I told the major shipping operators that they would not receive financial subsidies to support competition with subsidized French operators which some historians note must go down in history as one of the most short-sighted decisions this great statesman ever was to make in the whole of his distinguished career. The book has all the folding maps in fine condition, a fine copy bound in blue cloth, spine letterong gilt, top edge blue, in a near fine unclipped dust jacket showing only minor wear to head. A very nice copy.
