About

Richard K. Smith was curious about the big rigid airships of the 1920s and 1930s. He wondered why they had disappeared from the scene of aeronautics.

This book is primarily an examination of the rigid airship's place in naval operations in the period 1919-1940, with specific focus on the flying aircraft carrier's development and performance during 1931-1935.

Illustrated throughout with monochrome images, maps and drawings.
