Excerpt from Aviation: An Introduction to the Elements of Flight There is an ever-increasing number of people who desire to appreciate the main issues of technical subjects unconnected with their own professions: to such, primarily, I address this Introduction to the study of flight. There is no evading the fundamental technology of any real subject, whether commercial, scientific, or political by nature; the reader must ever provide the interest if he would receive any return whatsoever for his purchase of the author's capital. In this case, as the capital is so small, the initial interest on the reader's part must be all the greater. The scope of the book is indicated by the arrangement and character of the chapters. I have divided the treatment of the subject into four main parts. The first part relates to the fundamental principles of flight; the second part is concerned with practical accomplishment; it refers in detail to the work of certain notable pioneers like Lilienthal and the Wrights, and also has chapters on modem development, as demonstrated, for example, at the military aeroplane trials of 1912. The third part is mainly historical, and is placed in this order so that the significance of the "milestones" may more readily be appreciated. The fourth part is a collection of appendices that have no exact sequence or proper place in the body of the book. Among these I have included several simple numerical examples that may be of some assistance to the student. In any case, there is nothing like a few specific questions and answers as an assistance to fixing ideas on a strange subject.

Excerpt from The Art of Flying History is silent concerning the life and circumstances of Thomas Walker, portrait painter of Hull. His sole claims to immortality are the two editions of his pamphlet upon flying, which exhibit him as an earnest amateur with a hobby and some small conceit of himself. He fumbles with great truths knows much, but fails to order his knowledge, and hovers on the brink of great achieve ments in a way that is quite exasperating. For these reasons his writings are, perhaps, the most fascinating of all those of the pioneers, and this fascination is deepened by the drawings that accompany them. In the following reprint both his editions are published together for the first time. The first edition has been reprinted several times, but never with the original illustrations, which are here given from both editions.

Excerpt from Flying Machines Today The suggestion that some grasp of the principles and a very fair knowledge of the current practices in aeronautics may be had without special technical knowledge came almost automatically. If this book is comprehensible to the lay reader, and if it conveys to him even a small pro portion of the writer's conviction that flying machines are to profoundly influence our living in the next generation, it will have accomplished its author's purpose.

Excerpt from Theory of Flight Although the book is meant as a text for students and engineers, it was not the author's purpose to supply the reader with ready-made formulas in which to substitute design data. Nor was it his intention to give a collection of results that the candidate for a degree should memorize. The book aims, as did the Fluglehre, to develop interest in and understanding of the fundamental ideas that underlie the design and the operation of modern aircraft. The problems inserted at the ends of the sections, particularly those marked by an asterisk, are intended to give some direction to the efforts of any reader who would apply himself toward a better comprehension of the diversified questions involved in the theory of airplane flight.
