About this copy
This is a softcover instructional and historical guide to hang gliding, written by Bob Mackay, who served as Secretary of the National Hang Gliding Association and later the British Hang Gliding Association. The rear cover notes this as a follow-up to Mackay's earlier book simply titled Hang Gliding, which covered the sport's mid-1970s early days. The book has a self-cover (no separate dust jacket) with the title and a photograph of a hang glider printed directly onto the wraps.
Condition
- Book
- Good – a used paperback copy showing edge and corner wear, some soiling/spotting to the front cover, and light creasing. Sound and complete based on the photographs provided.
This is a pre-owned book, and minor age-related wear may be present beyond what is specifically mentioned. All readily visible defects have been described to the best of my ability. Please see photos, which form part of the description.
