The god machine : from boomerangs to black hawks, the story of the helicopter

Author:	James R Chiles
Publisher:	New York, N.Y. : Bantam Book, 2007.
Edition/Format:	Book : EnglishView all editions and formats
Summary:	History has known few more inventive minds than those responsible for the helicopter, mankind's most versatile flying machine. From the aerodynamic artistry of Leonardo da Vinci, through the futuristic tales of Jules Verne, to the prototypes built by the horde of rotationally obsessed enthusiasts who followed, here is the definitive story of a modern icon.

This book bears witness to the challenge of turning the earliest "rotating wing" aircraft into the helicopters of today.--From publisher description.  Read more...
