Description
Book Synopsis
The only comprehensive history of TWA and its predecessors. This book recounts how three larger-than-life personalities--Charles Lindbergh, Howard Hughes, and Carl Icahn--shaped the history of Trans World Airlines (TWA) and determined its fate. It's the story of how powerful, strong-willed individuals created and ultimately destroyed an American icon that had deep roots in Kansas City and St. Louis, Missouri. Come Fly with Me traces the airline from its origins in the 1920s to the twenty-first century. By using unprecedented access to the entire TWA corporate archives and interviewing key business leaders, the authors have crafted a compelling tale of a corporation, an industry, and an era.About the Author
