"The author chose an attractive title for his book procured an interesting introduction written by Major-General Sir Sefton Brancker Director of Civil Aviation and compiled a suitable prologue of appropriate quotations. This book is well illustrated with excellent maps. Major Salt has shown great industry in compiling valuable data respecting the development of imperial air routes up to May 1930." Rare especially in dustwrapper. The mid-1920s and 1930s are often nostalgically referred to as the 'Golden Age' of British civil aviation. In its sixteen years of operation Britain's Imperial Airways developed and promoted long-haul aviation as a viable means of long-distance travel and formulated and maintained a global aerial network that ushered in a new era of post-war globalisation and mass aeromobility. Though criticised as being the product of an imperial power in decline Ewer 2007 Imperial Airways established both the material and cultural foundations on which post-war civilian aviation would flourish and thus its importance must not be underestimated.
