In this book, Hopkins sketches the process of airline pilot unionization from the 1920s to the 1960s and how this process has changed the public view of the pilot as rugged individual to advocate of union solidarity. Hopkins chronicles reasons for this public opinion change from the Great Depression to the displacement of labor due to the technological efficiencies of the superjet.
