FLYING BOATS OF THE EMPIRE THE RISE AND FALL OF THE SHIPS OF THE SKY
Published by Robert Hale. 1st. 2011
Slightly better than very good condition. A fascinating account of the age of Empire flying boats, whose story began in July 1936 with a reassuringly trouble-free test flight on Kent's River Medway. Within ten years, however, this last word in luxury was to become redundant, spurned by the post-war age. Turquoise boards, silver title to spine. B/w photos.
Light browning to page edges. A little edge-creasing to wrapper.
