""A History of Aeronautics"" by E. Charles Vivian is a comprehensive book that explores the evolution of human flight, from the earliest attempts at flight to the modern era of aviation. The author covers the major milestones in aviation history, including the invention of hot air balloons, gliders, and airplanes, as well as the development of airships and rockets. The book also delves into the social and cultural impact of flight, including the role of aviation in warfare and the growth of commercial air travel. Vivian's writing is engaging and informative, providing readers with a detailed understanding of the history of aeronautics. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in aviation or the history of technology.Two abortive attempts characterised the sixties of last century in France. As regards the first of these, it was carried out by three men, Nadar, Ponton d'Amecourt, and De la Landelle, who conceived the idea of a full-sized helicopter machine. D'Amecourt exhibited a steam model, constructed in 1865, at the Aeronautical Society's Exhibition in 1868. The engine was aluminium with cylinders of bronze, driving two screws placed one above the other and rotating.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
