This book chronicles the evolution of the Manuscript Society, a
fifty-year-old organization of collectors and archivists, in the
context of autograph collecting in general. The author presents a
comprehensive account of the growing problems posed by forgers and
discusses the notorious Salt Lake City bomber, undoubtedly one of
the most skillful forgers of this century. From the dilemma faced
by archivists when papers are threatened with destruction to some
of the Society's most memorable meetings, this work tells a story
that will interest generations to come.

An engaging collection of intriguing problems that shows you how to
think like a mathematical physicist Paul Nahin is a master at
explaining odd phenomena through straightforward mathematics. In
this collection of twenty-six intriguing problems, he explores how
mathematical physicists think. Always entertaining, the problems
range from ancient catapult conundrums to the puzzling physics of a
very peculiar material called NASTYGLASS-and from dodging trucks to
why raindrops fall slower than the rate of gravity. The questions
raised may seem impossible to answer at first and may require an
unexpected twist in reasoning, but sometimes their solutions are
surprisingly simple. Nahin's goal, however, is always to guide
readers-who will need only to have studied advanced high school
math and physics-in expanding their mathematical thinking to make
sense of the curiosities of the physical world. The problems are in
the first part of the book and the solutions are in the second, so
that readers may challenge themselves to solve the questions on
their own before looking at the explanations. The problems show how
mathematics-including algebra, trigonometry, geometry, and
calculus-can be united with physical laws to solve both real and
theoretical problems. Historical anecdotes woven throughout the
book bring alive the circumstances and people involved in some
amazing discoveries and achievements. More than a puzzle book, this
work will immerse you in the delights of scientific history while
honing your math skills.

The Bristol Blenheim was one of the most popular British aircraft
at the beginning of World War II. It was a very versatile and
modifiable machine, and therefore typical bomber, reconnaissance,
and fighter (including night) versions were created. The first
mass-produced version was the Mk I, which featured a richly glazed
nose part of the fuselage. The most common version in the air force
of several countries was the Mk IV, in which the glass nose of the
aircraft was extended so that the bombardier could lie freely in a
special cradle during targeting. The nose of the fuselage had an
asymmetrical “dent” on the left side of the fuselage (in its
upper part), providing better visibility for the pilot sitting in a
separate cockpit. This version also had more powerful engines and a
longer range, but slightly lower speed and ceiling.

Every General's aim is to end a war by Christmas, and Montgomery,
perhaps, saw his opportunity in a bold strike across the southern
portion of the Netherlands close to the borders of an embattled
Reich. Still heady from earlier victories in the Normandy campaign,
the plan to push deep into enemy territory, with land and airborne
forces, was as daring as it was dangerous. Some would say the
furthest objective, Arnhem Bridge, was a Bridge too Far. Separated
into two distinct elements, Market, the airborne assault, was
designed to capture the vital bridges across the many rivers and
canals that were needed. Garden, the ground assault, would ensure
the bridges were soon part of a wider Allied salient. However,
planning and intelligence was as not as thorough as it had been in
previous operations and Market Garden turned from glorious
adventure, with easily achievable aims, to an almost devastating
defeat. This Battle Craft title also looks at four pieces of
military hardware that were involved in these legendary battles.
Representing the land forces are the Triumph HW3 motorcycle, a
dispatch riders stalwart and the unique German Sd.Kfz.2 Kettenkrad.
These amazing machines were vital in maintaining lines of
communications. On the main route of the march, the
state-of-the-art British Cromwell duelled valiantly against the
deadly Panther Ausf G. The Quartermaster section provides the
modeller with an insight into the development and operational use
of the four chosen vehicles that were involved in Market Garden. A
selection of historical and contemporary photos and illustrations
feature alongside stunning showcase builds, providing the modeller
with subjects to whet the creative appetite. It also features
details of model kits and extras that can really help the modeller
bring military history to life.
