From the Dust Jacket: "This is the complete and dramatic story of the amazing Lockheed C-130 Hercules -- the modern day successor to the C-47 Gooney Bird. A do-anything, go-anywhere tactical (and strategic) transport, the Hercules has demonstrated its prowess around the world. from Entebbe to Xingu, and thousands of points in between, hauling goods and people into and out of postage stamp strips of sand, snow and grass, to the amazement of onlookers and passengers alike. In this profusely illustrated definitive biography of the versatile Hercules, author Joe Dabney takes the reader through the propjet's development by Lockheed and the United States Air Force and recounts many of the airplane's most heroic deeds. Much of the HERK's story is told in the words of the C-130 flyers themselves, particularly USAF pilots who flew the airplane in Vietnam, which was perhaps the airplane's finest hour.".

Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. 253, [3] pages. Sources and Notes. Index. Illustrated endpaper. Inscribed by the author on the half title page. Inscription reads To James J. Kilpatrick, long-time mentor and friend-at-a-distance, with Warm Good Wishes, Webb. 7/20/83!!! Webb B. Garrison (1919-2000) was born in Georgia. He was educated at Emory University, graduating with degrees in philosophy and divinity. He served twenty-eight years as a pastor in the United Methodist Church. He also served as assistant dean of Candler School of Theology of Emory University, a lecturer at Vanderbilt University and Scarritt College, and president of McKendree College. Garrison was the author of twenty-eight books, and a frequent contributor to newspapers published in Georgia as well as more than one hundred nationally circulated magazines. James Jackson Kilpatrick (November 1, 1920 - August 15, 2010) was an American newspaper journalist, columnist, author, writer and grammarian. During the 1950s and early 1960s he was editor of The Richmond News Leader in Richmond, Virginia and encouraged the Massive Resistance strategy to oppose the U.S. Supreme Court's decisions in the Brown v. Board of Education ruling which outlawed racial segregation in public schools. For three decades beginning in the mid-1960s, Kilpatrick wrote a nationally syndicated column "A Conservative View", and sparred for years with liberals Nicholas von Hoffman and later Shana Alexander on the television news program 60 Minutes. In the 1730s, England founded the last of its colonies in North America. The project was the brain child of James Oglethorpe, a former army officer. After Oglethorpe left the army, he devoted himself to helping the poor and debt-ridden people of London, whom he suggested settling in America. His choice of Georgia, named for the new King, was also motivated by the idea of creating a defensive buffer for South Carolina, an increasingly important colony with many potential enemies close by. These enemies included the Spanish in Florida, the French in Louisiana and along the Mississippi River, and these powers' Indian allies throughout the region. Twenty trustees received funding from Parliament and a charter from the King, issued in June 1732. The charter granted the trustees the powers of a corporation; they could elect their own governing body, make land grants, and enact their own laws and taxes. Since the corporation was a charitable body, none of the trustees could receive any land from, or hold a paid position in, the corporation. Too, since the undertaking was designed to benefit the poor, the trustees placed a 500-acre limit on the size of individual land holdings. People who had received charity and who had not purchased their own land could not sell, or borrow money against, it. The trustees wanted to avoid the situation in South Carolina, which had very large plantations and extreme gaps between the wealthy and the poor. The undertaking was paternalistic through and through. For example, the trustees did not trust the colonists to make their own laws. They therefore did not establish a representative assembly, although every other mainland colony had one. The trustees made all laws for the colony. Second, the settlements were laid out in compact, confined, and concentrated townships. In part, this arrangement was instituted to enhance the colony's defenses, but social control was another consideration. Third, the trustees prohibited the import and manufacture of rum, for rum would lead to idleness. Finally, the trustees prohibited Negro slavery, for they believed that this ban would encourage the settlement of "English and Christian" people.
