Kingfisher Readers: Flight (Level 4: Reading Alone) (Paperback)

Working backwards from today's flight technology to the distant past, the history of aviation is traced. Beginning with present-day wide-body jumbo jets, this book recounts Lindbergh's solo flight across the Atlantic, the Wright brothers' flight of 1903, and continues back to the first balloon flight in 1783. A selection from the "Timeliners" book series. Full-color illustrations.
