He arouses humor one moment and amazement the next in the depictions of courageous, if not foolhardy, young aviators. Underlying the adventure of daring races and the romantic gestures, such as his planned honeymoon trip in a balloon from Barcelona to Paris, is a detailed recollection of the scientific debates of aviation's early history. Herrera applied his training as an engineer to anything airborne: balloons, biplanes and other early aircraft, dirigibles, helicopters, the atomic and hydrogen bombs, and satellites.

Description:
Born in 1879, Herrera was the kind of daredevil who embraced the whole idea of flying from ballooning to biplanes. A trained engineer, he took an intense scientific and practical interest in all aspects of man made flight. This biography (translated into English by Elizabeth Ladd) tells the story of his life, including the Spanish Civil War and life in Paris during the Nazi occupation. At the age of 62 he became the Director of the National Office of Aeronautical Studies and Research in Paris. After an exciting and often risky life, he died at a good old age in 1967. The book has been edited by Thomas F Glick,the Chair of History at Boston University. Illustrated with photos in black and white, plus some illustrations by Herrora himself, who was a talented artist as well as an engineer and scientist.. Quite a character! .231 pages,including index. Sturdy laminated paperback, Good Plus condition.
