Aeroplanes and Dirigibles of War

First published during World War I. The book begins: "e;It is a curious circumstance that an invention, which is hailed as being one of the greatest achievements ever recorded in the march of civilisation, should be devoted essentially to the maiming of humanity and the destruction of property. In noother trend of human endeavour is this factor so potently demonstrated as in connection with Man's Conquest of the Air."e;
