The book, The National Air And Space Museum takes the reader on an extraordinary walk through the National Air and Space Museum, which is located in Washington D.C.. Since the museum opened on July 1, 1976 it has become the most popular aviation museum in the world.  The unique architecture of this building includes ceilings of glass in three major exhibition halls.  Its girders support aircraft that seem to float overhead.  The original Wright Flyer and Spirit Of St. Louis greet the museum patron at the entrance, setting the tone for the journey through nineteen additional galleries.  Also of note is the fact that the since the museum's total inventory is more than 350 aircraft, only a fraction can be displayed at any one time, which almost guarantees that multiple trips to The National Air And Space Museum will offer the returning museum patrons a chance to see totally different exhibits and aircraft.  The major sections of "The National Air And Space Museum" are as follows: 1) Introduction; 2) Milestones Of Flight; 3) Space Hall; 4) Air Transportation; 5) Born To Fly; 6) Military Use Of Aircraft and 7) Quest For New Frontiers.  "The National Air And Space Museum" is replete with more than 80 high quality bold and dramatic color photographs that collectively convey the feeling of being in this great museum.  In turning through the pages of "The National Air And Space Museum" the reader will meet the individuals who dared the unknown and see the very aircraft, rockets and spacecraft that made history in the conquest of air and space.  "The National Air And Space Museum" is sure to appeal to any aviation enthusiast or history maven.  This book is 128 pages and is in very good condition.  The author is Barbara Angle Haber with Alan Gooch (design services).  Edition published in 1995.
