Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Aviation in Peace and War Our nation as a whole has been educated, owing to its geographical situation and by tra dition, to interest itself in the broader aspects of marine policy and development. It 'requires to take the same interest in aviation, a comparatively new subject, unhampered to a great extent by preconceived notions and therefore offering greater scope for individual thought. The following 1sketch 1 has been written in the hope that some of those who read it may be inspired to study aviation in one or other of its branches, whether from the historical, technical, strategical, or commercial point of view. Any opinions e pressed are, of course, my own-and not official. I propose first briefly to trace the history of aviation from its beginnings to the outbreak of war; next to describe the evolution of aircraft and of air strategy during the war; and last to estimate the present position and to look into the future.

Book Synopsis Air Power in UN Operations by : A. Walter Dorn
Download or read book Air Power in UN Operations written by A. Walter Dorn and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-23 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Air power for warfighting is a story that's been told many times. Air power for peacekeeping and UN enforcement is a story that desperately needs to be told. For the first-time, this volume covers the fascinating range of aerial peace functions. In rich detail it describes: aircraft transporting vital supplies to UN peacekeepers and massive amounts of humanitarian aid to war-affected populations; aircraft serving as the 'eyes in sky' to keep watch for the world organization; and combat aircraft enforcing the peace. Rich poignant case studies illuminate the past and present use of UN air power, pointing the way for the future. This book impressively fills the large gap in the current literature on peace operations, on the United Nations and on air power generally.

Book excerpt: Written and published before the United States entered what would eventually be termed World War I. This book highlights airmen who flew dirigibles such as the Zepplin as well as stories of aerial combat such as that of the German ace, Oswald Boelke (19 May 1891-28 October 1916) and American Victor Chapman (April 17, 1890-June 24, 1916) who was the first American pilot to die in the war. "The defense of the Mexican border in 1916 offered the first opportunity for active service to the air men of the United States army..: (chapter 9, American air men under fire, page 187). "The first air men to fly under actual war conditions were also Americans. Several months before the outbreak of the Great War flights were made during the attack on Vera Cruz ... The American officers flew over the territory occupied by the Mexicans for upwards of twenty miles, bringing back valuable information as to the position of the enemy ..."

Book Synopsis Boeing in Peace and War by : E. E. Bauer
Download or read book Boeing in Peace and War written by E. E. Bauer and published by Taba Publishing. This book was released on 1991 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1903, two events occurred that shaped the course of aviation history. The Wright Brothers flew at Kitty Hawk & Bill Boeing came to Seattle, Washington. Forged in the crucible of World War I, heavier-than-air flying machines quickly established themselves as a major force, & in World War II, after the foot soldier himself, became the primary instrument of attack & victory. On the commercial side, airplanes began to bring people together--from all nations & all walks of life. For the first time in history, the world was beginning to be linked & bonded as had been visualized by Wendell Willkie in his ONE WORLD in 1943. At last the focus was on a common thread--the reality that the fragile earth is surrounded by a hostile universe. Much more than a history commemorating the 75th anniversary of the company in 1991, BOEING IN PEACE & WAR highlights the major product decisions made by Boeing--& those of its principal competitors over nearly eight decades--in leading to domination in commercial airplane production.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Director and producer Tim Burton impresses audiences with stunning visuals, sinister fantasy worlds, and characters whose personalities are strange and yet familiar. Drawing inspiration from sources as varied as Lewis Carroll, Salvador Dalí, Washington Irving, and Dr. Seuss, Burton's creations frequently elicit both alarm and wonder. Whether crafting an offbeat animated feature, a box-office hit, a collection of short fiction, or an art exhibition, Burton pushes the envelope, and he has emerged as a powerful force in contemporary popular culture. In The Philosophy of Tim Burton, a distinguished group of scholars examines the philosophical underpinnings and significance of the director's oeuvre, investigating films such as Batman (1989), Edward Scissorhands (1990), The Nightmare before Christmas (1993), Sleepy Hollow (1999), Big Fish (2003), Sweeney Todd (2007), Alice in Wonderland (2010), and Dark Shadows (2012). The essays in this volume explore Burton's distinctive style, often disturbing content, and popular appeal through three thematic lenses: identity, views on authority, and aesthetic vision. Covering topics ranging from Burton's fascination with Victorian ideals, to his celebration of childhood, to his personal expression of the fantastic, the contributors highlight the filmmaker's peculiar narrative style and his use of unreal settings to prompt heightened awareness of the world we inhabit. The Philosophy of Tim Burton offers a penetrating and provocative look at one of Hollywood's most influential auteurs.
