| Synopsis: |
Whether we like it or not, the world of civil aviation makes an impact on the lives of many millions of people around the world today. Be it on a business trip or the annual search for summer sunshine, greater numbers of us take to the skies every year now as access to flying has broadened and become cheaper. This has led to a growing awareness of and interest in the world of civil aviation which is shared by many who would not class themselves as aviation enthusiasts. This book is aimed at that ever growing market place. It will appeal both to aviation enthusiasts and those who have a more general interest in the subject. The book provides exactly what it says on the box, 1000 photographs of civil airliners of all types, large and small, photographed all over the world in recent years, in a multiplicity of markings. Each picture is accompanied by a detailed caption with information about the type of airliner shown, the individual aircraft portrayed, the airline which flies it and location where the photograph was taken. The result is a wide ranging and comprehensive guide to world civil aviation today.The photographss reflect the ever changing liveries employed by the airlines for image and marketing purposes and the many and varied types of aircraft seen in the book's pages range from the latest types and variants of well known jet liners, to ancient propliners which are still in service in some parts of the world, but consigned to aviation museums in others. This is an attractive, well produced and competitively priced trade book which will sell in a wide range of outlets from airport shops to High Street bookshops and will appeal to a much wider audience than many of the more specialised aviation titles produced by Midland. |

Franklin
In 1845 Captain Sir John Franklin led a large, well equipped expedition to complete the conquest of the Canadian Arctic, to find the fabled North West Passage connecting the North Atlantic to the North Pacific. Yet Franklin, his ships and men were fated never to return. Why did this outstanding scientific navigator find his ships trapped in pack ice seventy miles from magnetic north? In this riveting story of the Arctic, Andrew Lambert discovers a new Franklin: a character far more complex, and more truly heroic, than previous histories have allowed.
