    Paperback (Macha Press, Oct. 23, 2014)
    In the 21st century - the age of the budget airline - where quick and reliable air travel is available to a large segment of society, it seems hard to comprehend that it is less than 250 years since the first human took to the skies.Although the wing of the bird seemed like the most obvious natural mechanism to attempt replicate, it was actually contained hot air, as demonstrated by the Montgolfiers and their balloon, that gave birth to the era human aviation. Since the first manned balloon flight in 1783, developments have come thick and fast, the airship, the aeroplane, and finally the space shuttle.This reprint of a classic publication from 1879 contains a wealth of fascinating information on the early history of aviation. Complete with illustrations and a brand new introduction, it covers the adventures of the great aeronauts such as Coxwell and Rozier, and famous ascents like that of the Zenith. This is a wonderful work for anyone with an interest in the technology and events that defined the lighter-than-air period of aeronautics.

  • The Balloon Galloon

    Edward Allan Faine, Joan C. Waites

    Paperback (IM Press, Sept. 15, 2001)
    WHO: The Balloon Galloon. WHAT: The eater of lost balloons. WHERE: Jackson Hole, Wyomimg. WHEN: 24/7/365. WHY: Somebody's got to do it. The Balloon Galloon is the first book to: 1) present a children's fantasy character for one of life's most enduring mysteries: the inability of children to hold onto their balloons and suffer their losses gracefully; and 2) help parents comfort a child who has just lost a balloon, namely: "There it goes! The balloon is off to the Balloon Galloon and Jackson Hole. And remember what Ping says in the book: 'Be brave. Don't cry. There will always be a brighter day. There will always be another balloon.'" STORY SYNOPSIS: Children all over the world are losing their balloons to a mysterious faraway force. Not satisfied with his usual quota of lost balloons, and mistakenly fearing an impending shortage, the Galloon is luring children's balloons to his lair in Jackson Hole, stockpiling them for the impending shortage to come. Ping happens upon the scene, confronts the Galloon and, using a combination of reason and pressure -- pin pressure to be exact (popping some balloons) -- convinces the Galloon to return the balloons to their rightful owners: the children of the world! The Balloon Galloon is a Picture Book for kids 2-8. Illustrated by Joan C. Waites.
