Edited by Wilbur C. Nelson

London: Pergamon Press, 1959.

First edition: Review copy, with publisher's slip laid in.

Enhanced with a bounty of fascinating photographs on striking black-and-white plates of rockets, missiles, gas guns, test laboratories and more.

Also illustrated with numerous figures, equations, tables, graphs, and charts.

A detailed study that covers a broad range of topics including both practical and theoretical investigations on rockets, meteorites, guided missiles, and satellites.

Quite nice and presentable.

A hint of rubbing to upper and lower spine edges and corner tips, else nearly fine in blue cloth with gilt embossed titles and illustrations to the front cover and spine; in a very good plus dust jacket with tiny chips to the upper and lower spine edges, an inch tear to the upper spine tear and a few tiny edge tears.

An elusive dust jacket.

280 pages; references; discussions.
