Book Description

FIRST EDITION, photographs and diagrams to the text throughout,
Dealer Notes
Forman was a journalist, photographer and explorer, the major part of whose studies and travel focused on the Orient. This book relates to his early time in China, when he sold aircraft and trained pilots; though there is necessarily a certain amount of technical and legal information, the book is - the author considers- ‘designed to direct a special appeal to the layman in the aviation world’.
The publisher was an imprint of the Commercial and Credit Information Bureau.
