This wonderful leather-bound series from Time-Life takes the reader back to The Old West. With color illustrations and plenty of black and white photos. When President James Buchanan predicted in 1858 that the country would someday be bound east and west "by a chain of Americans which can never be broken," the links were already being forged by an army of entrepreneurs known as the Expressmen. Their freight and stagecoach services moved Eastern goods westward, Western ones eastward, and shuttled people, money and mail both ways. By 1860, Pony Express riders were relaying mail across more than half the country in the amazingly brief time of 10 days. Such labors, celebrated here and on the following pages in paintings by Western artists, were eventually to be supplanted by the railroads and the telegraph. But until then. the Expressmen persisted as though the fate of a fledgling civilization rested in their hands - and it did.

The Pathfinders is a Time-Life aviation book included in the Epic of Flight series.The miracle of early flight, achieved hundreds of times by the audacious pilots of aviation's infancy, raised the question in their minds, "Can I get there from here in an aeroplane?" Before the great Atlantic Ocean could be crossed, the English Channel had to be crossed - and it was crossed in 1909 by Louis Bleriot, by the narrowest of margins with his crutches (necessary from an earlier accident). He did not a single navigational instrument.Next the Alps were conquered, then the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean Sea. Great cities were linked. The advent of war in 1914 ended the brief era of these pathfinders but their deeds had contributed to the prelude of the Golden Age of Aviation.

History

Time Life UK

Architects of Air Power is a Time-Life aviation book included in the Epic of Flight series.By the late 1930s air power had dramatically altered the strategic balance in Europe. The seeds of this new order had been sown in WWI. A few farsighted men - notably British Chief of Air Staff Hugh Trenchard, "Billy" Mitchell of the U.S. Army's Air Service and Italian Army colonel Giulio Douhet - insisted that an air force could undertake independent offensive action in war.The flying machines of their day were primitive and could carry only a handful of bombs but these architects of air power foresaw that in an era of total warfare, civilians as well a soldiers would become targets of aerial attacks aimed at crushing their will to resist.
