      The German Naval Airship Division commands an important place in aviation history, for almost half of the 162 rigid airships ever built served in the German Navy in World War I. Fantastic indeed is the story of their reckless attacks on England which Dr Robinson unfolds. All too many of the fragile giants, filled with inflammable hydrogen, fell as easy prey to the incendiary bullets of defending British aeroplanes. They were the first strategic bomber force, and their range, endurance and carrying capacity far exceed those of other aircraft of their day.
