Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I read the second edition of this book, and based off that I will not be buying the third edition. It was not a very well written book. The chapters jumped around as the author tried to cover everything in chronological order for Boeing and the companies it later bought such as McDonnell Douglas. His accounts of the events are from the perspective of senior Boeing management, and that is the real value of the book. It gives the reader a feel for how Boeing's leadership saw events. That is why I gave it two stars rather than one star. Bauer often leaves out key facts when discussing events, such as certain things with the contract the company did during the strike of 1948. Otherwise, if you want a good account of Boeing's history, read something else such as Flying High or The Sporty Game.
