"Joseph Corn's lively and readable book... is well organized and written, thoroughly researched in primary documentation, and richly anecdotal and fascinating. Here are gathered the couples wedded in the air, the designers of automobiles that fly, the prophets of peace and prosperity -- the true believers... in the millennium of flight." -- Alex Roland, Isis
"Corn exploit[s] a wide assortment of books, periodicals, and cultural symbols and is adept at extrapolating evidence to support his thesis that aviation became something of a secular religion, promoting both prosperity and harmony. The author's enthusiasm for his topic is infectious." -- Roger E. Bilstein, Journal of American History
"A lively study." -- Wall Street Journal
Joseph J. Corn is a senior lecturer in the department of history at Stanford University. He is the co-author of Yesterday's Tomorrows: Past Visions of the American Future, available from Johns Hopkins.
