Notes:
The work of a leading financial writer. It is 'essentially about the politics of international airlines; how they first grew up in a highly politicised atmosphere, how their dazzling ambitions and technology were directed by political decisions and choices, how nations faced new problems as they extended their competition into the air and how the planes in their turn influenced the politics on the ground'.
