FLIGHT: A Celebration of 100 Years in Art and Literature
In Collaboration with NASA.
On December 17, 1903 Wilbur Wright made the first powered flight. The revolutionary experience that is powered flight expanded the imagination in new directions. In six parts, this takes you chronologically and thematically from the invention of the aircraft and its uses in transportation and war through explorations in space. Beautiful images, mostly in color and often full- or two-page come from Norman Rockwell, Chesley Bonestell, Robert McCall, Ron Miller, Ron Cobb, Charles Bell, Pablo Picasso and others. Collected prose, poetry and memoirs from great writers and aviators accompany the images. More than 80 images and a wealth of inspiring writings--a fitting and excellent tribute to Wright's inaugural flight.
