{detailed description}British Airships in Pictures An illustrated history 1784-1998

This is the celebration of a great British success story.
For two centuries, Britain has been engaged in the development and operation of practical and useful airships.
It is often forgotten that Britain built more blimps than any country except the USA, and that she built more rigid airships than any country except Germany.
More to the point, Britain enjoyed an outstanding safety record. In all the years of operation, no fare-paying passenger was ever killed.
This authoritative book describes the development and use of the British airship in peacetime and in war. The illustrations, many of which are previously unpublished, have been carefully selected to complement the detailed chronology of the text.
