A historical account that documents the rapid, dramatic advancements in aviation between the World Wars.

There were record-breaking trans-oceanic flights, aerial exploration of the North and South poles, and the beginnings of airmail flights and the modern Air Force. Commercial aviation got underway with the DC-2, as well as ill-fated airships like the German Hindenburg.
