The story of aviation beginning with Charles Lindbergh's New York-Paris flight in 1927 with chapters covering how Mussolini identified his fascist regime with the modernist cachet of aviation; how the Hollywood film industry created the aviation film, and how the spectacle of flight reached its tragic apotheosis during the bombing campaigns of the Spanish Civil War and WWII.
