Author: Langewiesche, William
Condition: New
The most lyrical and incisive book on flying revised, expanded, and updated-from the author of Inside the Sky. With an Introduction by John Banville.In these essays, William Langewiesche considers how flying has altered not only how we move about the earth, but also how we view our world and our place in it. With vivid descriptions of the aesthetics and excitement of flight, he also writes of the risks that go with this beauty: the perils of air traffic control, and the dangers of nervous passengers and bad weather. Full of spare and elegant prose, Aloft is a fascinating journey into the sky.
