Wings of Madness - Alberto Santos-Dumont and the Invention of Flight by Paul Hoffman
Wings of Madness chronicles the science and history of early aviation and offers a fascinating glimpse into the mind of an extraordinary and tormented man, vividly depicting the sights and sounds of turn-of-the-century Paris. It is a book that will do for aviation what The Man Who Loved Only Numbers did for mathematics.
This hardcover book is in good condition with some imperfections to the dust jacket but pages and cover in very good condition.
