Skygods: The Fall of Pan Am

SKYGODS is the saga of America's most glamorous airline from its meteoric ascent to its plunge to extinction.

Pan Am blazed the way across the world's oceans with its magnificent Clipper ships, launched the first international jet service, was the first to fly the behemoth 747, was the lead customer for America's SST and the Concorde, and was even taking reservations for the first commercial flights to the moon.

Told from multiple viewpoints--pilots, stewardesses, management executives--SKYGODS is the life story of an American icon.
