"The Lore of Flight was conceived as the ultimate in a single-volume book covering most aspects of human flight.It describes and illustrates not only the history of flying - from flapping-wing bird-men to the supersonic airliners of today and tomorrow - but also how every part of an aeroplane is made and does its job. It contains over 1,000 illustrations, more than half of them in colour, drawn specially for this book."
Comes with Dust Jacket which has some tears and age/storage wear, but the rest of the book is in very good clean used condition.
