El-Hai traces the history of Northwest Airlines, from its humble beginnings as a mail carrier in 1926 to its acquisition by Delta in 2010. In addition to the most likely topics--the evolution
of transportation and technology--the text explores a range of other themes, including food, fashion, advertising, heroism, and catastrophe, illustrated with full-color and b&w photographs.
Interwoven with the stories of passengers, employees, and other individuals who were part of Northwest’s history, the text offers readers insights into both the corporate and human sides of
this once-thriving airline. Annotation ©2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
