This book explores aviation's evolutionary process, from biplanes and propeller aircraft through the early decades of jet engines. It also explores the Cold War space race, in which two superpowers waged an ideological, economic and military struggle for global influence. In doing so, it sheds new light on the causes and effects of America's singular contributions to the golden age of aerospace history.
