Commissioned on the occasion of its 75th Anniversary, here is the fascinating historical account of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics and its predecessor organizations--the American Rocket Society and The Institute of the Aeronautical Sciences--and the significant contributions each has made to the evolution of flight. From the early struggles to create and distinguish aeronautics as a distinct profession, through the technological necessities brought on by two world wars, to the incredible advances spawned by the Space Age, this book covers it all in a highly readable, thoroughly researched narrative format. Reading like an aeronautical and astro-nautical "who's who," this is also the amazing story of the organizations' founders, leaders and members--visionary individuals and dedicated engineers advancing theories and technologies in a profession that has forever changed society and shaped everyday life as we know it.
