Boeing Model 377 Stratocruiser

Boeing's 377 is arguably the definitive design among the great propliners of the 1950s. Though it had neither the sleekness of the Lockheed Constellation nor the longevity of the great Douglas pistons, the Stratocruiser was the most statesmanlike of them all. The Stratocruiser story is not a straightforward one, but this history reveals every aspect of the aircraft -- from its evolution and design to its production and service -- and includes complete details of operators and technical specifications. Nostalgic period color photography is sure to transport readers back to the halcyon era of air travel.Hewson, Robert is the author of 'Boeing Model 377 Stratocruiser' with ISBN 9780760311974 and ISBN 0760311978.
