Fittingly named for a wild horse, this fighter became widely recognized for its power and beauty. It was a key element in Allied air superiority in Europe during WWII, destroying 9,081 enemy aircraft, and with similar results in the Korean War. Striking photos and the personal stories of the men who flew it help to tell the story of this superior aircraft. Full color photos of restored P-51s. Revised and updated
Documents the author's trip along Highway 50 from Ocean City, Maryland to Sacramento, California.

Why is What’s My Line? TV star and Pulitzer-Prize-nominated investigative reporter Dorothy Kilgallen one of the most feared journalists in history? Why has her threatened exposure of the truth about the JFK assassination triggered a cover-up by at least four government agencies and resulted in abuse of power at the highest levels? Denial of Justice—written in the spirit of bestselling author Mark Shaw’s gripping true crime murder mystery, The Reporter Who Knew Too Much—tells the inside story of why Kilgallen was such a threat leading up to her unsolved murder in 1965. Shaw includes facts that have never before been published, including eyewitness accounts of the underbelly of Kilgall...
Stanford University hosted the XIX International Symposium on Lepton and Photon Interactions at High Energies on August 9 - 14, 1999, at the Law School on the Stanford University Campus, the site of the previous Symposia. This volume constitutes the proceedings of the Symposium.
The county seat of Fulton County, Rochester is a small rural town in north-central Indiana. Its history includes many famous people. Despite the mistaken trivia game answer, Elmo Lincoln, the first Tarzan in 1918, was born in Rochester, Indiana, not New York. And John Chamberlain, famous modern sculptor, was born here too. Clyde Beatty, wild animal trainer extraordinaire, lived here while the Cole Brothers-Clyde Beatty Circus had its winter quarters in Rochester in the 1930s. For a community with such a small population, Rochester has harbored more than its share of famous people.
Progress in Organosilicon Chemistry comprises more than thirty papers presented by many of the world's most eminent organosilicon specialists at the Tenth International Symposium on Organosilicon Chemistry held in Poznan, Poland in August 1993. The conference marked the fiftieth anniversary of the discovery and exploration of "direct synthesis." As much attention today is directed beyond silicon polymers, chemists have become involved with the use of elementary silicon and its applications, including ultrapure silicon in transistors and computers, silicon precursors of polymers, and other silicon-based materials as well as fine chemicals. This book provides an overview of organosilicon chemistry, including organic and inorganic chemistry of silicon, silicon polymers and oligomers; theoretical and structural chemistry of silicon; silicon-based materials and their applications; silicon in organic synthesis; mechanistic organosilicon chemistry; and bio- and environmental organosilicon chemistry. This diverse range of topics makes the book a valuable reference for chemists working in both applied and theoretical chemistry.
