Billy Mitchell was a professional soldier from the days of the Spanish War when he was the youngest officer in the American army. He was interested in aviation from its earliest beginnings. He was one of the first army officers to learn to fly, and at one time he got practically every aeronautical record in the world for the United States. He was instrumental in developing both military and commercial aviation in this country.

In his book “Skyways,” General Mitchell describes practical flight in simple, non-technical language. He covers all phases of aviation (as of 1930), including how the airplane is handled, the power plant, propeller and instruments, the weather as it affects flying, maps, photography and the type of men who make good aviators. He also describes flying fields and airways, aeronautical insurance and laws, the trend of aeronautical construction, and commercial and military aviation and aviation for sport, ending with a forecast of the future. The book features over seventy illustrations from photographs and drawings.
