Charles Lindbergh. Howard Hughes. Carl Icahn. These three larger-than-life personalities shaped the history of Trans World Airlines (TWA) and determined its fate. This book tells the story of how powerful, strong-willed individuals created and ultimately destroyed an American icon that had deep roots in Kansas City and St. Louis, Missouri. The only comprehensive history of TWA and its predecessors, Come Fly with Me traces the airline from its origins in the 1920s to the 21st century. Taking advantage of unprecedented access to the entire TWA corporate archives and interviewing key business leaders, the authors have crafted a compelling tale of a corporation, an industry, and an era.
