About

The Wright brothers achieved powered flight in 1903, but in the years immediately following the major contributions to aerodynamic theory were made by German scientists. Bringing Aerodynamics to America provides a fascinating look at the personalities and interactions of the principals, the institutions that nurtured them and that they developed, and the content of the theories that established their reputations in aerodynamics.

Paul A. Hanle is Chairman of the Department of Space Science and Exploration, National Air and Space Museum, Smithsonian Institution.

Illustrated throughout with monochrome images.
