Abundantly illustrated and engagingly narrated, it provides a detailed historical survey of aircraft piston engines from the turn of the 20th century to the book's publication in 1981. In its pages the reader will encounter aircraft piston engines and their components in all their fascinating variety: air-cooled and liquid cooled; radial, in-line, and opposed; poppet valves and sleeve valves; diesel and spark-ignited; two-stroke and four-stroke. Some of these configurations were oddities and do not receive much coverage, but more common types, such as air-cooled radials, are extensively described and analyzed. With its extensive coverage and trenchant observations, A History of Aircraft Piston Engines belongs on the bookshelf of anyone with a serious interest in the history of aviation technology.
