Description: 1942 Flight Without Power, The Art of Gliding and Soaring by Lewin B. Barringer This book delves into the techniques and principles of gliding and soaring, exploring how humans can harness the power of the wind to achieve sustained flight. Otto Lilienthal, often regarded as the first person to learn the art of flight from observing birds, plays a significant role in the book. Lilienthal not only practiced gliding himself but also shared his knowledge. His contributions to the field of gliding are invaluable. In very good condition.
