Default Rockets Of The World 4th. edition on e-bay.

I thought this was worth posting.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Rockets-of...HB/264802913925

Just for kicks I thought it'd be worth watching; within a couple of minutes the seller made an offer.
No need here as I have a 2nd. edition.

Bob

Seems like a reasonable price, especially given their relative scarcity these days.

Look at the seller's other books. I had a copy of RoTW (same edition) but had to buy three other books that seller has....and I have a bunch more in my watch list now. Quite a bit of aviation and space history, engineering and more.

No affiliation with the seller....but just ordered three books.

Wow - that went for a very reasonable price.

I don't have the Fourth, but I do have the 1st , 2nd and 3rd editions. I spoke with Peter when I ordered the 3rd and he told me it was the very last copy he had.

Does anyone know if there were any additions to the 4th, or was it just a re-print?

He said he was working on it during his presentation at the virtual NARAM Manufacturer's Forum on Monday evening. He also said that the recent booklets he has been releasing are sort of a teaser. But no time frame.

That's pretty much what Peter also told me when I spoke with him at NARAM last year in Muncie.

Yeah. I seem to have overheard at least one such conversation with him at Muncie last year. So I didn't ask him...
