This is the first detailed account of the historic race for long-distance flight records between the U.S. Army and U.S. Navy after World War II.

On a sunny Fourth of July during World War I, King George V went out to a ball game.

This historic event helped solidify the transatlantic alliance that was vital to winning the war.
