Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The First Flight Around the World Carrol V. Glines and Stan Cohen When the fixed-wing flying machine reached the point where it could span distances of more than a few miles, it was inevitable that intrepid airmen would look at the globe and consider it possible to encircle it by air. The thought lingered in the minds of enthusiastic fliers all over the world in the first five years following WWI. This book is about those who were the first to succeed.
