The Story of American Aviation, written by Jim Ray, is a thrilling story of how the Airplane evolved and the part it has played in the War and Peacetime history of the United States of America. The work as a whole is directed towards a sound conception of the steps which have been taken in aircraft development and the engineering advancement which underlines the structure of our swiftly developing air age. As we look over the record of the astounding progress of American aviation in many years, let us salute our military leaders who have visualized the need for air power; the men who have designed and built our great engines and airplanes, and the leaders of commercial aviation who have made air travel fast, safe and economical.
Autorenporträt
Jim Ray is a writer, fundraiser and consultant. He spent his childhood in Australia, England and then-just to ensure total confusion-the Deep South of the United States. He has the distinction of being deemed an underachiever by educators on three separate continents. Jim was told by one teacher that he had the talent-but certainly not the discipline-to write a book, and thus would never do it. This volume accordingly serves as a stark repudiation of Ms. MacNaughton and her misguided pessimism. It's taken 40 years to get around to this, so admittedly the timing is not ideal.
