This book from "The Epic of Flight" Time-Life series features the development of military jets from WWII through the early 1980s with emphasis on their use in Korea, Vietnam and the Middle East.

For a full 24 hours after sighting the Cornish coast on the afternoon of Friday, July 29, 1588 the Armada crept slowly eastward up the Channel without catching a glimpse of the English fleet. The most heavily gunned fleet in history was stalking its prey with eerie and circumspect quiet. The following conflict had a lasting importance which would reverberate down the ages. The image of the great Spanish fleet fleeing settled in men's minds and would not leave. It took on a golden nostalgic sheen and changed the way battles were fought at sea. Spain's advance had been abruptly halted and Spanish prestige never recovered.

Presents the development of jet passenger aircraft in America and elsewhere.
