Title: Fill the heavens with commerce
First published: 1981
Description: Everybody knows that Chicago's O'Hare Field is the busiest in the world, but few who pass through O'Hare realize that since the infancy of flight Chicago has been a center of aviation. This lively, information-packed book draws on never-before-published records, including those of the famous Aero Club of Illinois, many photographs in private collections, and interviews with the scattering of aviation pioneers still alive to give a rare portrait of aviation in its infancy and to document Chicago's role in the early development of flight.
