The Hindenburg Disaster

The Hindenburg Disaster recounts the historical disaster of the airship bursting into flame and killing 31 people on board.  The book tells about how the ship was built, how it was flown, materials used in building, how to actually travel, and length of trips.  The story is 75 years old and there isn’t any new information; same old photos.  History of how air travel evolved is interesting, but I’m not sure why they would be publishing new books about an old topic.  These air ships were short-lived and dangerous.  Most students won’t find this interesting, only those who thrive on disasters, which are few and far between.
