The Hindenburg Disaster: A History from Beginning to End

Usually, I don't care for long-term background stories of things, but this one on the Zeppelin dirigible's history is an exception. The story of how dirigibles came to be is fascinating. They predated airplane travel by several years. The Zeppelin company never had a single accident during its operational history. However, things changed when the German government got involved.

The story of the Hindenburg Disaster is fascinating because the author told how the reality and the filmed versions differed. This is an engrossing story.
