About this book

  • The Robert Wichard Pohl letters, which are the basis of this book, have never before been translated or published.
  • Pohl provides a rare personal account of life aboard a WWI airship
  • This was the first flight to exceed 100 hours, and to prove that Zeppelins were, indeed, capable of flying across the Atlantic Ocean.
