A collection of short articles, most previously published in newspapers and magazines, about aviation in the 1920's and before. Lindbergh, Zeppelins, Polar Explorers, World War One Aces, the Wright Brothers, and lots more. Something to delight any kid with red blood in his veins, as well as girls who are not put off by the word "Boys" in the title.
