Hard Back. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Good. First Edition Stated. 278 Pages. Front boards have some light edge and spine wear and prevous owner's seal embossed on the front endpaper. Blue dust jacket has unclipped price of $12.95 and some edge and corner wear. Endpapers are maps showing flight paths. Sixte…en color photographs in the center.The true account of the first flight across the Atlantic Ocean by men in a balloon. The 1978 voyage by three self-made businessmen from Albuquerque is a tale of great courage, endurance and ingenuity. Sixteen previous attempts had failed, with five lives lost. No one who had once attempted this flight had ever wanted to try again, however this trio did try again after being forced to ditch near Iceland on their first voyage. In this book the authors chronicle the initial attempt made by Abruzzo and Anderson in 1977, which ended in bitter fialure, and the second triumphant voyage in Double Eagle II a year later. McCarry draws incidisve portraits of the fascinating and complex heroes, revealing both he tensions they endured and the comradeship they shared in the tiny gondola that drifter 1000s of feet above the surface. Here, are descriptions of the otherwolrdly beauty of the skies and of the strange exhilarating sensations of balloon travel. Also detailed are the meticulous meteorological calculations, the technical wizardry, and the remarkable coordinating efforts of Double Eagle's ground crew, who advised the ballonists as they struggled against storms and cold, and ballasted against deadly downdrafts. On their first voyage, Abruzzon and Anderson were caught by storms and blown off course; with Abruzzo near death from exposure, they ditched three miles off the coast of Iceland. Undaunted, even more determined to be the first balloonists to cross the Atlantic, they tried again in 1978 with Newman. This time better prepared, the three men successfully rode a high pressure ridge from Presque Isle, Maine, to a barley field near Miserey, France, in six days. There they were mobbed by a throng of euphoric French and were catapulted into intermaiton fame.

Bound in the original silver-stamped light blue boards with dark blue cloth spine. From the dust jacket: "A book that will tell us something inspiring about the human spirit: why men - and maybe why Americans in particular - will risk death to prove to themselves and to the world that men can do anything they choose to do." - Charles McCarry. Double Eagle is the riveting, true account of the first flight across the Atlantic Ocean by men in a balloon - by all reckonings one of the most extraordinary human adventures of all time. The 1978 voyage by Ben Abruzzo, Maxie Anderson, and Larry Newman, three self-made businessmen from Albuquerque, New Mexico, is a tale of supreme courage, endurance, ingenuity, and the all-powerful drive for glory. One of the world's most dangerous physical challenges, the transatlantic balloon voyage was a goal that defied success - all sixteen previous attempts had failed, with five lives lost. No one who had once attempted the flight had ever wanted to try again. In Double Eagle (the huge, helium craft was named Double Eagle after Charles Lindbergh, the Lone Eagle) Charles McCarry and the balloonists chronicle the initial attempt made by Abruzzo and Anderson in 1977, which ended in bitter failure, and the second, triumphant voyage in Double Eagle II a year later. McCarry draws incisive portraits of the fascinating and complex heroes, revealing both the tensions they endured and the comradeship they shared in the tiny gondola that drifted thousands of feet above the surface of the earth. Here, too, are descriptions of the otherworldly beauty of the skies and of the strange and exhilarating sensations of balloon travel. Also detailed are the meticulous meteorological calculations, the technical wizardry, and the remarkable coordinating efforts of Double Eagle's ground.". Inscribed / Signed by all 3 balloonists. First Edition (so stated). Hardcover. Very Good condition/Very Good dust jacket. Illus. by NOT a library discard. 8vo. viii, 278pp. + 16 pages of full color photos. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping. NOT a library discard (ilustrador).
