The Aviation Legacy of Henry & Edsel Ford by Timothy J. O'Callaghan, 208 pages many photos, was written to chronicle Henry and Edsel Fords contribution to the story of aviation during a most critical period of its development. The fabulous Ford Tri-Motor, Henry Ford's tiny "Flivver and the B-24 Liberator, were all important milestones on the journey from the stick and fabric planes of WWI to the all metal commercial airliners and mighty bombers of World War II.
