The American Astronautical Society's History of Rocketry and Aeronautics is the greatest series of history books that no one has heard of.

These presentation papers published yearly by the American Astronautical Society are incredible insights into aspects of the world Aerospace history. They are always worth the time and money.

If anyone collects the History of Rocketry and Astronautics books, I just learned that the series' longtime publisher, Univelt, closed up January 1st.

The website is no longer functional but remaining inventory is being sold by email: sales@univelt.com.

I scored a copy of Biggs' Space Shuttle Main Engine.

All times are CT (US)
