    The Great Air Race: Death, Glory, and the Dawn of American Aviation

    The Great Air Race: Death, Glory, and the Dawn of American Aviation by John Lancaster, Jonathan Todd Ross, HighBridge, a division of Recorded Books
    English | November 15, 2022 | ISBN: B0BM3P3JTQ | 10 hours and 46 minutes | MP3 | 296 Mb

    The incredible, untold story of the men who risked their lives in the first transcontinental air contest—and put American aviation on the map.
    The Great Air Race reclaims one of the most important moments in the history of American aviation: the transcontinental air race of October 1919 that saw scores of pilots compete for the fastest roundtrip time between New York and San Francisco in frail, open-cockpit biplanes. Riveting the nation, the aviators—most of them veterans of the Great War—pioneered the first coast-to-coast air route, braving blizzards and driving rain as they landed in fields or at the edges of cliffs. Bringing the pilots and the race's impresario, Billy Mitchell, to vivid life, journalist and amateur pilot John Lancaster captures the challenges of flying in that almost prehistoric age—the deafening roar of the engine, the constant fear of mechanical failure, the threat posed by mere rain. As he demonstrates, the race, despite much drama and tragedy, was a milestone in the development of commercial aviation. The Great Air Race is a captivating story of man and machine, and the debut of a major new popular historian.
