Sobre este artículo
Tucson, AZ: Westernlore Press, 1995 Westernlore Press, Tucson, AZ. 1995. Hardcover. First Edition. Signed by the author on the half title page. Book is tight, square, and unmarked. Book Condition: Very Good +; slight wear to top of front board. DJ: Very Good; sunfading to spine; light wear to head, tail, and tips. Red leatherette boards and spine with bright gilt lettering on the spine. 250 pp 8vo. The author is well-known for his extraordinary success as an international marketer of business jets but little is know about how he got there especially from a life torn between the Germans and the Russians in WWII Hungary. From military intelligence to Beach was a jump but so to Learjet as head of export. This book is not just about the author but also about aircraft companies, heads of state, industrialists, and the aviation world in general. A clean very presentable copy in a Brodart mylar jacket.
