&#8220Deves into O&#8217Hae&#8217spast and present,

based on Branigan&#8217sextensive research and his

interviews with aviation professionals and

enthusiasts&#8221(Chicago Tribune). In 1942, a stretch of

Illinois prairie that had served as a battleground and a railroad

depot became the site of a major manufacturing plant,

producing Douglas C-54 Skymasters for World War II. Less

than twenty years later, that plot of land boasted the biggest

and busiest airport in the world. Many of the millions who have

since passed through it have likely only regarded it as a place

between cities. But for people like Michael Branigan, who has

spent years on its tarmac, they know that O&#8217Hae is a

city unto itself, with a fascinating history of gangsters, heroes,

mayors, presidents, and pilots. Includes photos! &#8220Ths

book reads like no other in the aviation industry from the


historical context. Mike is a prolific writer with a knack for

telling a story in a way that people can easily relate and

understand.&#8221&#8212TrbLocal
