In His Majesty’s Airship, historian S.C. Gwynne brings to life the poignant and perilous saga of the R101, the world's largest airship, which met a tragic fate in 1930. This thoroughly researched narrative intertwines the ambitious vision of British imperial air travel with the doomed love affair between a British officer and a married Romanian princess. Gwynne explores the groundbreaking yet flawed technology behind airships and the complex lives of a cast of remarkable figures, showcasing a dramatic tale of ambition, romance, and disaster.
