On December 17, 1903, on the windswept beaches of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, Orville Wright piloted the world's first powered flight, in one of the most famous moments in history. Within a few short years, airplanes of various designs were lifting into the air over Europe and America. Soon, the entire world was caught up in the fevered advance of flight and airplanes, Zeppelins, autogyros and helicopters were making the world a much smaller place. To celebrate the first full century of powered flight premier aviation historian Christopher Chant and world-famous illustrator John Batchelor have joined forces to showcase an astonishing march of progress. From the early experiments of gliderman Otto Lilienthal to the moon walk of Neil Armstrong, it has indeed been A Century of Triumph. From the golden age of Zeppelins to the extreme design experiments of World War II to the fierce modernism of supersonic fighter jets, A CENTURY OF TRIUMPH demonstrates the full richness of mankind's flying craft. In addition to Batchelor's illustrations, the book features never-before-published vintage watercolour posters of pre-World War I aviation races and a treasure trove of photographs. Chant's text combines full histories of the planes themselves with biographical essays on some of the great figures of the twentieth century: the Barnstormers, Igor Sikorsky, Amelia Earhart, Chuck Yeager, and the Apollo XVII astronauts, among others. A CENTURY OF TRUMPH is a visual and factual feast for anyone who marvels at the majesty of flying.

Flying has been man's longing since its inception when he contemplated the flying of birds looking up at the sky. Millennia passed until he finally decided to dare to stop contemplating the birds and start his passion and primitive instinct of conqueror, but this time the terrain to conquer would be much more difficult, the sky. The success that embraced pioneers such as the Wright brothers, unleashed a new and exciting activity that led to a succession of inexhaustible experiments with a single purpose, to conquer flight. Big names have been imprinted in the history of world aviation. Simple people who shared the same vision as that primitive man who contemplated the flight of birds, mastering the art of flying. The development of aviation during the last century has been a fundamental pillar for the development of civilization, not only as a means of transport, but also as a tool for production, connection and liaison between the different cultures that today are mixed throughout the world. We will know the stories of the most outstanding personalities and companies in the aeronautical world such as the history of Cessna, Piper, Boeing, Airbus and the fathers of aviation, the Wright brothers.
