5.0 out of 5 stars The Most Up-to-Date History of Aviation, February 13, 2001
This review is from: Mastering the Sky: A History of Aviation from Ancient Times to the Present (Paperback)
Mastering the Sky tells the exciting story of aviation in historical perspective. The author is a former Air Force pilot who became a published historian. It begins with the take-off of a Boeing 747, asking how one can lift over 400 tons higher than Mt. Everest in a matter of minutes. It gives answers to such questions, as it flashes back to the mythology of flight and comes forward to the 20th century, including space flight. It is current through 2000, three years before the centenary of the Wright Brothers first flights.

It is current through 2000.
