RC history book
I'm writing an essay[&:] about the history of RC hobbies, and one of the essay requirements is that one of my sources must be a book. And unfortunately, I can't find any books.[:@] Can anybody help? And no, unfortunately I can't use magazines. Thanks!

RE: RC history book
Well... I don't know of any compete history of model aviation books.
However
I happen to have a book that covers a fair bit of the history!
The World of Model Aircraft
Guy R Williams
Chartwell Books Inc.
Library of Congress Cat Card number 72-88889
I would use some books AND some magazines... because you won't properly cover the 1930's to 1950's without using the magazines. Ther just aren't any books that cover that era well. (at least none I have been able to find...)

RE: RC history book
There is a great book called " Do You Speak Model Airplane". Not sure of publisher or anything 'cuase I'm at work ( SSHHHHHHHH! Don't tell my boss I'm on RCU!!) It is exactly what you are looking for.
