New York. Dover Publications, Inc., 1959. Reprint edition. Trade paperback. x,693, [1] pages. Illustrations. Formulae. Index. Cover has some creasing, wear and soiling. Minor ink marks and notes inside rear cover. This Dover edition, first published in 1959 is an unabridged and corrected republication of the first edition first published in 1949 by McGraw-Hill Book Company. This Dover edition includes a new Preface by the authors. Dr. Abbott was the Director of Aeronautical and Space Research at NASA and Dr. von Doenhoff was a NASA research engineer. The new edition reflected a continuing demand for a concise compilation of the subsonic aerodynamic characteristics of modern NACA wing sections together with a description of their geometry and associated theory. These wing sections, or their derivations, continued to be the most commonly used ones for airplanes designed for both subsonic and supersonic speeds, and for applicaitons to helicopter rotor blades, propeller blades, and high performance fans. Since original publication many new contributions had been made to the understanding of the boundary layer, the methods of boundary-layer control, and the effects of compressibility at super-critical speeds. These were acknowledged but not fully addressed in this revision. More

W adys aw Albert Anders (11 August 1892 – 12 May 1970) was a general in the Polish Army and later in life a politician and prominent member of the Polish government-in-exile in London. Anders commanded the Nowogródzka Cavalry Brigade during the German Army's invasion of Poland in September 1939 and was immediately called into action, taking part in the Battle of M awa. After learning about the Soviet invasion of Poland, Anders retreated south in the direction of Lwów (Lviv), hoping to reach the Hungarian or Romanian border, but was intercepted by Soviet forces and captured, after being wounded twice. He was jailed in the Lubyanka prison in Moscow. During his imprisonment Anders was interrogated, tortured and unsuccessfully urged to join the Red Army. Anders was released and later formed and led the Polish 2nd Corps, while continuing to agitate for the release of Polish nationals still in the Soviet Union. The Polish 2nd Corps became a major tactical and operational unit of the Polish Armed Forces in the West. Anders commanded the Corps throughout the Italian Campaign, capturing Monte Cassino on 18 May 1944, Ancona on 18 July 1944; afterward his Corps took part in the breaking of the Gothic Line and in the final spring offensive.
