The Blossoming Miles

Peter Jaques

Experience the Golden Age of British aviation through the eyes of a legend: F. G. Miles, the maverick designer who brought speed, innovation, and beauty to the skies. Frederick George Miles is a man obsessed. Fuelled by a relentless drive to design and build the most innovative aircraft the world has ever seen, he takes daring risks, pushes boundaries, and challenges the very limits of what's possible. By his side is Blossom, his wife and equal, whose brilliance and unwavering support are the wings beneath his dreams. Together, they face down financial ruin, navigate a cutthroat industry, and weather the storms of personal tragedy, all while battling the skepticism of a world that doubts their vision. As their company, Phillips and Powis, rises to new heights, so too do the stakes. Will their ambition lead them to triumph... or to a devastating fall? Based on a true story, The Blossoming Miles is an epic tale of love, innovation, and the enduring spirit of those who dared to reach for the sky.
