Description: The Travel Agent Glory Days By Ann Naylor Kirkman Published: 2014. FIRST EDITION. 167 pp. Softcover. SIGNED by author on title page. Ann Kirkman became a travel agent in the mid nineteen fifties. World War II had ended. America was experiencing a period of economic prosperity. It was a time when the world was generally viewed as safe, and airline travel was making great strides. Her first transatlantic trip involved many plane changes and layovers, with all flights on propeller planes. It took 34 hours from Greensboro, North Carolina, to London, UK. In 1988, she flew on the Concorde from Washington, DC, to Paris in 3 hours and 45 minutes. In her book, The Travel Agent Glory Days, she writes about learning to be a travel agent through day by day experience. She tells of witnessing, as they happened, the developments in the world of travel and of communications. Interwoven are stories of her own travels to Europe, the Caribbean, the Orient, Alaska, Hawaii, Egypt, Iran, and the Middle East.Not Ex-Lib. I've done my best to describe the book, but if you have additional questions, please don't hesitate to send me an e-mail.
