While there is no direct documentary or archaeological evidence that any manned or unmanned flights prior to those discussed below occurred using these methods, Ege notes an indirect report of evidence that the Chinese "solved the problem of aerial navigation" using balloons, hundreds of years before the 18th century. The Mongolian army studied Kongming lanterns from China and used them in the Battle of Legnica during the Mongol invasion of Poland. This is the first time ballooning was known in the western world.".

"This book is about the realization of man's oldest dream- the conquest of the skies. The sensational discoveries of the Montgolfier brothers in 1783 pointed the way to the great adventure of the free balloon. From then on the romantic story of the "lighter-than-air" machines has been told in the words of those who made them, who flew in them, or who watched them drift through the skies. Indeed, these pioneers are the authors of this book. and they speak with all the enthusiasm and wonder engendered by this new science when if first began to sweep the world. The stories are taken from eyewitness accounts, newspaper stories, reports to scientific bodies, from log-books, memoirs, and letters. Eighteenth-century engravers, watercolourists, painters, and nineteenth- and twentieth-century photographers all contribute a wealth of dramatic illustration, much of which has never been published before.".
