About this title

Synopsis

Excerpt from The Conquest of the Air: Or the Advent of Aërial Navigation

The final conquest of the air by man finds no popular and, at the same time, scientific account, in English, of its accomplishment. While the rapid progress which is daily being made in aérial navigation necessarily renders any permanent record of the latest achieve ments impossible, yet the epoch when mechan ical flight was demonstrated to the world seems opportune to chronicle the past and present status of the art and to forecast its future.
