Interpretation Supposing Books O que eu vi, o que nós veremos (Portuguese Edition)
Originally published in 1904 (one year after the Wright brothers' first heavier-than-air powered flights at Kitty Hawk), this memoir of one of the early pioneers of powered lighter-than-air flight is an interesting account of the development of airships in the late 1800s and early 1900s.

Cresci com a lenda de que Santos Dumont havia cometido suicídio por causa do uso de sua invenção na guerra. Nesta autobiografia, ele comenta ter aceitado convite de militares franceses para discutir o uso bélico do seu nº 9, o pequeno dirigível com que ele famosamente atravessou a Champs Elysées e o estacionou em sua casa, na esquina da rua Washington, para tomar um café e depois levantar voo novamente. Narrativa saborosa de um ícone de quem The Times, de Londres, em edição contemporânea, disse
