Rocket Manual for Amateurs - Rocketry Design Test Data Brinley (1966, Paperback)

Description: ROCKET MANUAL FOR AMATEURS Rocket Manual for Amateurs, by US Army Captain Bertrand R. Brinley, is a remarkable book written at a very specific moment in time. After the launch of Sputnik in 1957, a craze for rocketry swept the U.S., especially among teenage boys. But there was no straightforward way to build your own rocket in those days, so these boys muddled along, pillaging black powder from shotgun shells or fireworks to serve as propellant. Some of these would-be rocket engineers ended up getting badly injured by their poorly-designed rockets. But they ultimately built successful high-performance rockets. Condition: Good Condition. Binding is Good. No writing or marks to Interior or Exterior. Book(s) may have Shelf and/or Storage Wear. Please see all 13 Pics.

Brinley, is a remarkable book written at a very specific moment in time. After the launch of Sputnik in 1957, a craze for rocketry swept the United States, especially among teenage boys. But there was no straightforward way to build your own rocket in those days, so these boys muddled along, pillaging black powder from shotgun shells or fireworks to serve as propellant. Some of these would-be rocket engineers ended up getting badly injured by their poorly-designed rockets. But others got increasingly professional as their experiments progressed, and they ultimately built successful high-performance rockets. This period of time doesn’t have much cultural resonance now, but it is the setting of Homer Hickam’s memoir Rocket Boys (1998) and the film based on it, October Sky (1999). Condition: Good Condition. Binding is Good. No writing or marks to Interior or Exterior. Book(s) may have Shelf and/or Storage Wear. Please see all 13 Pics.
