Why did the British, then the leading nation in science and technology, fall far behind in the race to develop the aeroplane before the First World War? Despite their initial advantage, they were overtaken by the Wright brothers in America, by the French and the Germans. Peter Reese, in this highly readable and highly illustrated account, delves into the fascinating early history of aviation as he describes what happened and why. He recalls the brilliant theoretical work of Sir George Cayley, the inventions of other pioneers of the nineteenth century and the daring exploits of the next generation of airmen, among them Samuel Cody, A.V. Roe, Bertram Dickson, Charles Rolls and Tommy Sopwith. His narrative is illustrated with a wonderful selection of over 120 archive drawings and photographs which record the men and the primitive flying machines of a century ago.??As featured on BBC Radio Surrey and in Essence Magazine.

This is the true story of one man's love affair with airplanes and his persistence and determination in following his dream of being a professional pilot. It chronicles the fifty years he spent in the cockpits of numerous different types of airplanes, in varied and demanding types of flying, that took him all over the world. This is a story of the joy and wonder of flight as he takes us with him to watch clouds instantaneously forming in the moist morning air along the Gulf Coast, or to watch the shimmering green curtain of the Aurora Borealis in the predawn hours in Sweden. We share his awe and wonder at the brilliance of a sunrise over the Baltic Sea and we get a sense of the peace and solitude he finds in the blackness of the night at forty-one thousand feet. This is a story of adventure, as we ride with him into a flooded, mud encrusted, snake infested airport following a South Texas hurricane, and we taste his fear as his airplane is shadowed by a mysterious orange disc in the middle of the night. He gives us a close and honest look at the worry, tension, fatigue and fear that is a part of the working pilot's world. Along the way he shares some of the humor, wit, and lightheartedness of the moment as well as some of the mistakes and screw-ups that probably won't be on the highlight reel. This is a story that acknowledges the many different pilots that shaped his career. In all professions we learn from our peers, we take the good we see in them and try to make it our own while discarding those habits and attitudes that can lead to disaster. We become a composite of all the pilots we fly with and he pays tribute to all those who furthered and assisted his career. And finally it is a tribute to all the airplanes he has flown. "Without me they are not capable of flight without them I cannot fly."
