520    When the China Clipper shattered aviation records on its 
       maiden six-day flight from California to the Orient in 
       1935, the flying boat became an instant celebrity. This 
       lively history by Robert Gandt traces the development of 
       the great flying boats as both a triumph of technology and
       a stirring human drama. He examines the political, 
       military, and economic forces that drove its development 
       and explains the aeronautical advances that made the 
       aircraft possible. To fully document the story he includes
       interviews with flying boat pioneers and a dynamic 
       collection of photographs, charts, and c.
