Zeppelin: The Story of a Great Achievement

positive

I loved it. It give an early, but informative peek into the world of airships. I just wish my copy had pictures.

This copy does not include the plates seen in the print version which make this very brief overview of an under reported subject worthwhile.

Huge lighter than air airships, Zeppelins, are extinct today but at ne time they were a viable method of long range transportation. This book recounts the events that led to the Zeppelin firm developing the airships and other countries quickly following suit. If you're a student of aviation history, you probably know the basic story, but this book will giver you details you probably don't know. Also, It's fun to see what was being said about airships back when they were still in development. At the Kindle price (free) it's worth a look.
