Summary:
This is not a CD-ROM. It is seven books in electronic form, on three
diskettes (formatted for PCs, not Macintosh). These diskettes contain
seven classic works about the history of flight: The Mastery of the
Air by William Claxton The Aeroplane Speaks by H. Barber Aeroplanes
and Dirigibles of War by Frederick Talbot The Dominion of the Air:
The Story of Aerial Navigation by J.M. Bacon British Airships: Past,
Present, Future by George White History of Aeronautics by F. Charles
Vivian This is a public domain edition. Buy one and make copies for
your colleagues, students, or friends. The material on this diskette
is in plain (ASCII) text, formatted for a PC (not Macintosh). You can
manipulate it with your favorite word processing program to enhance
the format or to print out portions just the way you want. We provide
these texts as they are found on the Internet. We do no additional
editing. We believe the people who originally input or scanned these
texts made every effort to be accurate. But we cannot guarantee the
accuracy. Please accept these texts "as is," in the spirit of sharing
which prevails on the Internet. (If for any reason you are not
satisfied with a disk which you purchased directly from us, you may
return it for replacement or refund.) We encourage you to become an
active participant on the Internet. We believe that by providing you
with this service, by helping you easily get the information that is
most improtant to you, we free you up to engage in the exciting and
creative opportunities offered by the Internet, instead of being
bogged down in the time-consuming chores of hunting and downloading.
Remember, much of the value of having public-domain texts on computer
disk comes from the ability to copy them. For example, those of you
who are teachers can: 1) use a disk as a substitute textbook -- have
all your students bring in their own blank disks and make copies at
your computer center or library; 2) take texts from several disks and
make your own anthology, as easily as you might make a "mix" of your
favorite music. Remember that the disks you buy and the anthologies
you compile also benefit the rest of your department, who in turn can
do what they want with their copies. And remember that you can reuse
these texts in the same manner for years to come.
