This book follows the rise of air power from Kitty Hawk to the present. Leading military historian Jeremy Black traces the rapid evolution of technology over time, creating new parameters for effectiveness. Throughout, he assesses governmental and societal dimensions of the response to air power, and how attitudes have changed. He vividly shows how public and state senses of opportunity and fear are key drivers to understand the development and use of air power. He also assesses the value of air power as opposed to the use of ground and naval forces.
