In 1903, two events occurred that shaped the course of aviation history. The Wright Brothers flew at Kitty Hawk & Bill Boeing came to Seattle, Washington. Forged in the crucible of World War I, heavier-than-air flying machines quickly established themselves as a major force, & in World War II, after the foot soldier himself, became the primary instrument of attack & victory. On the commercial side, airplanes began to bring people together--from all nations & all walks of life. For the first time in history, the world was beginning to be linked & bonded as had been visualized by Wendell Willkie in his ONE WORLD in 1943. At last the focus was on a common thread--the reality that the fragile earth is surrounded by a hostile universe. Much more than a history commemorating the 75th anniversary of the company in 1991, BOEING IN PEACE & WAR highlights the major product decisions made by Boeing--& those of its principal competitors over nearly eight decades--in leading to domination in commercial airplane production.
