The record of an aeronaut, being the life of John M. Bacon
A 1907 London memoir by Gertrude Bacon of her father John Mackenzie Bacon, an aeronaut, published by J. Long for a general readership interested in ballooning. Its photographs are sepia halftones of the Crystal Palace balloon exhibition, a balloon rising at dawn, and cloud banks seen from above, offering a designer quiet, tonal references for early aviation and atmospheric landscapes.
