There's a great new book out on the history of flight attendants. It's called "Come Fly With Us! A Global History of the Airline Hostess." It's full of cool pictures from the 30's till now, and the text is fun and informative, and very respectful toward the hardworking women who have helped to make airtravel safe and comfortable. The author is Johanna Omelia, and the book is available on amazon.com and probably other places online and in bookstores. There are some great United shots and info. Thanks!
