Take an Exciting Trip Back in Time With This Fascinating Book Written by the Aviation Experts of 1906-1911.

    Those Magnificent First Flying Machines, edited by C.B. Hayward, is an exact reprint of a genuine, rare aeronautical classic. Written by the most eminent authorities of the day, it gives you the true picture of how exciting early aviation was.
     It describes exactly how the early aeroplanes flew? You’ll feel like you’re at the controls! You’ll learn about their performance, stability, and handling, and the truth about their engines. The aeroplanes of Antoinette, Farman, Voisin, the Wright brothers, Bleriot, Curtiss, Santos-Dumont, Roe, Cody and many others come alive. There are also chapters devoted to building a glider, a Bleriot monoplane, a Curtiss biplane, and flying models. A real page-turner.
