The Hindenburg was the largest flying craft the world has ever seen. Not since the Titanic set sail had a more elegantly equipped craft been launched to serve the world's travellers, offering both luxury and unprecedented speed. But on May 6, 1937, the Hindenburg's brief career came to a disastrous end. Images of the giant zeppelin crashing to the ground in flames are among the most famous photographs of the century. Here, the story of this amazing silver giant is told with gripping text and splendid cutaway illustrations by Ken Marschall. Inside the Hindenburg follows the journey of two young people who were actually aboard the zeppelin on her first flight of the 1937 season to Lakehurst, New Jersey. It guides young readers into the heart of the zeppelin to explore the passenger deck, view the crew's quarters, steer the 804-foot ship from the control car, and then make the perilous descent from the hull to one of the engine cars. The dramatic demise of the Hindenburg - consumed by flames in less than a minute - is traced step by step with Ken Marschall's striking and historically accurate diagrams.
