By tracing the development of air transport from the recognition of its potential in World War I, Thayer brings together all of the major aspects of a complex area of public policy and illuminates some often overlooked interrelationships between commercial and military policies. Centering his discussion on the political, economic, and military interest groups, the author points out forcefully where adjustments are needed.
