The Aero Blue Book And Directory Of Aeronautic Organizations is an aviation reference text edited by Henry Woodhouse and published in 1919. Released just after the conclusion of the First World War, this landmark volume captured the pivotal transition of aviation from a military necessity into a commercial and civilian industry. This book is an authoritative compilation of data, rules, and organisational structures for the rapidly growing aerospace sector. This copy is bound in blue cloth with printed titles in gilt to the front. The book is illustrated with numerous historic photographs and the occasional map. Advertisements of the time feature in the prelims and at the rear. The binding on this copy is a little worn with fading to the spine. The interior gutter is a little cracked although the text block remains quite firm. The pages however, are remarkably clean with an addenda slip inserted just before the contents page. pp. 202. A highly sought after copy and a must for any aviation enthusiast.
