Erisman. Boys' aviation series books from 1910-1950 shaped at least two generations' views of aircraft and American life. From the earliest days of aviation to those of spaceflight, they instilled a vision of flight both romantic and progressive. Now, this comprehensive study of more than forty boys' aviation series reveals the part played by the books and their writers in spurring the American nation's fascination with flying. 300 pages, 30 B&W photographs, 6"x 9", hardcover
