Higher 100 Years Of Boeing 100 Years of Boeing

Over the course of a century, the Boeing Company has grown from a small outfit operating out of a converted boathouse-producing a single pontoon plane made from canvas and wood-into the world's largest aerospace company. The thrilling story of the celebrated organization is one filled with ambition, ingenuity and a passion to exceed expectations. In this lavishly illustrated book, published to coincide with Boeing's 100th anniversary, Pulitzer Prize-nominated author Russ Banham recounts the tale of a company and an industry like no other-one that has put men on the moon, defended the free world and changed the way we live.
