There is a whole series of Harry Higley books about models. One is something like "All about Engines". Worth the money.
just found it the other day and have it on order as well as the 4 other books related to building planes. I think I am going to order a miss stick junior next month. It is cheap and will give me an idea on how to build a plane. Then maybe build one more at a intermediate level and then buy a B-25. I want one of those planes bad.
