Thumbs up LAUNCH History of Rockets...

So, my wife had a rocketry-related present all picked out for my birthday 10 days ago. The propaganda below says it was published in November 2007, but it doesn't appear to be available yet:

http://www.amazon.com/Launch-Magazi...l/dp/160239105X


I'm all signed up to be notified via e-mail when it finally shows up.

However, I can't help but wonder if there's someone who occasionally frequents this forum that could tell me about it. Or maybe they're just up to their eyeballs taking care of, oh, *other* things.


"Inquiring minds want to know!"


Cheers,

I will find out about the release of the book and post my results here when I find out.

Yes, the book was supposed to be out last November, but, hasn't appeared yet.

Jay, how does one "occasionally frequent" something? Sounds like an oxymoron to me!
