First Sentence
As curious as it may seem, the roots of the 747 go back to the end of April 1945, as World War II in Europe was drawing to a close. Read the first page

4.0 out of 5 stars I would give it 5 stars, if it just has more photos...., Nov 17 2001
This review is from: Boeing 747 Design & Evolution Since 1962 (Paperback)
The book is great except for one thing. There are not nearly enough, or any, photo's of the inside cabin. I would certainly like see what a 747 looks like on the inside with various views of all 3 levels of the giant. Unfortunatly, the book only shows you one 1969 photo near the front of the book. That of the first
class area. Otherwise, a great book.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Concise Tribute to Her Majesty, the Queen of the Skies, July 25 2001

This review is from: Boeing 747 Design & Evolution Since 1962 (Paperback)
As with their other collaborative efforts, Norris and Wagner present us with a wealth of quality photographs on the best-known airliner. More than that, the authors take us on a journey of how the 747 came to be and where it is today. Each series and variant is surveyed; the information is concise and accurate. While this book may not be the visual feast laid out before us in the Airliner Color History series, this book is highly engaging and well worthwhile to any airliner aficianado.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun and factual, Mar 23 2000

This review is from: Boeing 747 Design & Evolution Since 1962 (Paperback)
Not so informative to bore an aircraft enthusiast, yet provides enough to ponder an aircraft engineer. This contours enough history and facts about the mighty 747 that it's worth reading twice. Ive used this book for foot noting a few aviation college classes. If you like airplanes like I do, you'll enjoy this book.
