The airplane ranks as one of history's most ingenious and
phenomenal inventions. It has surely been one of the most world
changing. How ideas about aerodynamics first came together and how
the science and technology evolved to forge the airplane into the
revolutionary machine that it became is the epic story told in this
six-volume series, The Wind and Beyond: A Documentary Journey
through the History of Aerodynamics in America. This first volume
covers the impact of aerodynamic development on the evolution of
the airplane in America. Volume II explores the airplane design
revolution of the 1920s and 1930s and the quest for improved
airfoils. Subsequent volumes cover the aerodynamics of airships,
flying boats, rotary-wing aircraft, breaking the sound barrier, and
more.
