Champions of Flight - Book

Regular price $49.95

This fantastic collection of vintage art from two of America’s premier aviation artists, Clayton Joseph Knight and William John Heaslip, chronicles the golden age of aviation—from Charles Lindbergh's epochal transatlantic flight through the most devastating war in world history (1927–1945). Experienced military men and accomplished artists, these two combined an authenticity of experience and artistic mastery of illustration which produced powerful artwork that influenced a generation of Americans. Over a period of almost twenty years, Clayton Knight and William Heaslip championed their love of flight through their art, and they did so with enthusiasm, integrity, and generosity. This book, featuring over 400 illustrations and photos, is a tribute to their legacy. (hardback, 304 pages, 220 color images, 200 b/w images)
