Castle Ian
London 1914�17 The Zeppelin Menace
Oxford: Osprey Publishing. Very Good. 2008. First Edition. Softcover. 1846032458 . Card covers show very light shelf wear small crease on bottom forecorner. ; A bright solid book.; Campaign #193; B&W and Colour Photographs Maps; 9.7 X 7.4 X 0.7 inches; 96 pages; "Ian Castle tells the story of Germany's air offensive against Britain in World War I 1914-1918 in which from May 1915 until October 1917 zeppelins dropped thousands of tons of bombs on London. Initially the city was woefully unprotected but an integrated air defense system was progressively developed in response to the early months' destruction and casualties. Over a year was to pass before the first zeppelin was downed over British soil by the Royal Flying Corps but successes then steadily mounted as observation and communication networks improved and new tactics were learned. In his revealing account of a terrifying campaign which was to be repeated only decades later in the Luftwaffe's Blitz the author describes the birth of a new arena of warfare "the home front."" .

Wohl Professor Robert
A Passion for Wings Aviation and the Western Imagination 1908-1918
New Haven: Yale University Press. Very Good in Very Good- dust jacket. 1994. First Edition. Hardcover. 0300057784 . DJ shows some shelf wear with small tears. ; A bright solid book. Dust jacket in Mylar jacket protector. ; B&W and Colour Illustrations; Small 4to 9" - 11" tall; 320 pages; "The invention of the aeroplane was both the realization of an age-old human fantasy and a portent of a great new future. This book - a cultural history of the pioneering phase of aviation - tells the story of the ways in which powered flight captured the imagination of writers artists and intellectuals and helped to shape new visions of the world. Prize-winning historian Robert Wohl describes the colourful early aeronauts: the brilliant taciturn Wilbur Wright who arrived in France to demonstrate his invention to a sceptical audience and soon became their idol; Alberto Santos-Dumont a Brazilian expatriate and dandy who delighted the Parisian public by landing his dirigible in front of his house on the Champs-Elysees; and Louis Bleriot the first man to fly across the English Channel. He then looks at responses to the development of the flying machine by such writers and artists as H.G. Wells Emile Driant Franz Kafka Gabriele D'Annunzio Edmond Rostand F.T. Marinetti Vasily Kamensky Kazimir Malevich and Robert Delaunay showing how the responses ranged from celebration of flight to dire warnings of its military implications. Finally he explores the creation of the flying ace the knights-errant of the sky analyzing how such men as Roland Garros Oswald Boelcke Manfred von Richthofen and Georges Guynemer became famous how they came to terms with their deadly pursuit and how they were mythologised after their deaths. Generously illustrated with rare photographs drawings paintings and posters the book evokes an era of pride power and endless possibility when the sky first became a new frontier." .

Small remainder dot on bottom page edges.; A bright solid book dustjacket in Mylar unclipped. ; B&W Illustrations; 9.13 X 6.57 X 1.11 inches; 245 pages; "�Winged treasure� they call them�the lost remains of the great American fighter planes and bombers that won World War II. Hellcats and Superfortresses Corsairs and Dauntlesses. Produced by the thousands at the height of the war and then cast off as scrap in the decades that followed these warbirds are now worth literally anything�fortunes families even lives�to the people who search for them. Like many men writer Carl Hoffman was bitten by the warbird bug as a child. But he never imagined that he would one day witness and participate in a heroic adventure himself�the most audacious warbird rescue attempt of all time.The crash of the Kee Bird B-29 Superfortress made banner headlines in 1947 when a team of Air Force pilots pulled off the near-miraculous feat of locating the wreck in Greenland and snatching its stranded crew from the teeth of the arctic winter. For nearly half a century the almost perfectly intact warbird lay abandoned on a lake of ice�but not forgotten. Fifty years later with collectors paying upward of a million dollars for salvageable World War II planes two intense fanatics legendary test pilot Darryl Greenaymer and starry-eyed salvage wizard Gary Larkins hatched the insane idea of launching an expedition to Greenland to find the Kee Bird bring it back to life and fly it out.

NASA A History of the U.S. Civil Space Program
Malabar FL: Krieger Publishing Company. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1994. Third Printing. Hardcover. 0894648780 . Front flap creased otherwise as new. ; A bright solid book DJ in Mylar . ; An Anvil Original; 7.10 X 4.50 X 0.80 inches; 276 pages; When future generations review the history of the twentieth century they will undoubtedly judge humanity's movement into space with both machines and people as one of its seminal developments. Even at this juncture the complex nature of spaceflight and the activity that it has engendered on the part of many peoples and governments makes the U.S. civil space program a significant area of investigation. People from all avenues of experience and levels of education share an interest in the drama of spaceflight. This book is the most up-to-date synthesis of the American civil space program available and the only one designed especially for use as a college textbook. Written by NASA's chief historian it describes the history of this effort from its earliest origins to the early 1990s and offers a powerful analysis of the space program that merges political economic technological scientific and foreign affairs into a meaningful whole. As in all the Anvil Series texts it has both a sound historical narrative and a set of key documents which suggest other aspects of the story. . Krieger Publishing Company hardcover
