Riding the Jetstream:

"If you want a concise history of modern oceanic and global ballooning, this is the book for you. Christopher details the hopes, plans, frustrations, and successes of each of the projects as they unfold..."  Tom Hamilton - Balloon Life

Ballooning - From Basics to Record Breaking:

"Written by a pilot, this manual has it all and it is with the advantage of including relevant information and not simply waffle. A great read for the amateur and professional alike."
David Hempleman-Adams

"I am not sure if there any other introductory books on ballooning, but if there are, I doubt that they would impart so much detailed information or make the sport seem so attractive as does this one."
